Stoneley-wave velocities for a solid-solid interface

A. S. GINZBARG and E. STRICK

EXPLORATION AND PRODUCTION RESEARCH DIVISION, SHELL DEVELOPMENT COMPANY,, HOUSTON, TEXAS

Abstract

Stoneley-wave velocities for a solid-solid interface were calculated for a wide range of elastic parameters. For density ratio {rho}1/{rho}2 < 1, the ratio of the Stoneley velocity to the shear velocity of the first medium VST/b1 is almost independent of the Poisson ratio {sigma}1. Similarly for {rho}1/{rho}2 > 1 VST/b1 is almost independent of {sigma}2.

Results are given in graphical form:

For {rho}1/{rho}2 < 1 and 0 less double equals {sigma}1 less double equals 0.50, graphs of {rho}1/{rho}2 vs. VST/b1 are given for {sigma}2 = 0.00, 0.10, 0.20, 0.25, 0.30, 0.35, 0.40, 0.45, 0.48, and 0.50.

For {rho}1/{rho}2 > 0 and 0 less double equals {sigma}2 less double equals 0.50, graphs of {rho}1/{rho}2 vs. VST/b1 are given for {sigma}1 = 0.00, 0.10, 0.20, 0.25, 0.30, 0.35, 0.40, 0.45, 0.48, and 0.50.
