Method and system for estimating rock properties from rock samples using digital rock physics imaging

TL;DR: In this paper, a method for efficiently characterizing rock traversed while drilling a borehole for hydrocarbon reservoir development is presented, where a rock sample is obtained having a provenance of collection linked to a specific region of the borehole, which is scanned to obtain a 2D digital image that is segmented to pixels characterized as pore space and as mineral matrix and defining a boundary between them.

Effects of pressure and saturating fluid on wave velocity and attenuation in anisotropic rocks

TL;DR: In this article, the energy velocities and quality factors of anisotropic reservoir rocks are derived as a function of pore pressure, partial saturation and frequency, and the model is based on Biot's poroelastic theory.

Brittleness index and seismic rock physics model for anisotropic tight-oil sandstone reservoirs

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors constructed a seismic rock physics model for tight-oil sandstone reservoirs with vertical fractures, and analyzed the brittleness sensitivity of the elastic parameters in an anisotropic medium.

Timescales of fluvial activity and intermittency in Milna Crater, Mars

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors calculate the timescale of sediment deposition by considering fluvial sediment input into the entire crater while accounting for non-fluvial input, and place improved constraints on the channel dimensions through which sediment was delivered to Milna by comparing to the dimensions of inner channels found in valleys in the region surrounding Milna.

The role of porosity and solid matrix compressibility on the mechanical behavior of poroelastic tissues

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the dependence of the mechanical and hydraulic properties of poroelastic materials on the interstitial volume fraction (porosity) of the fluid flowing through their pores and compressibility of their elastic (matrix) phase.
