Theoretical prediction of elastic modulus at different states and squirt-flow-related attenuation: extension of Cracks-Pores Effective Medium model

Squirt flow plays an essential role in elastic modulus dispersion and attenuation for fluid-saturated cracked porous rocks. The Mavko–Jizba model and relevant modified models can describe the squirt flow well based on the related elastic moduli, such as dry/drained bulk modulus. However, when these elastic moduli are challenging to attain, it is impossible to model the squirt-flow-related elastic ...
