Seismoelectric wave propagation modeling for typical laboratory configurations: A numerical validation

The seismoelectric effect can be of importance for hydrocarbon exploration as it is complementary to conventional seismics. Besides enabling seismic resolution and electromagnetic sensitivity at the same time, the seismoelectric method can also provide us with additional, high-value information like porosity and permeability. However, very...

Validation of an electroseismic and seismoelectric modeling code, for layered earth models, by the explicit homogeneous space solutions

We have developed an analytically based, energy fluxnormalized numerical modeling code (ESSEMOD), capable of modeling the wave propagation of all existing ElectroSeismic and SeismoElectric source-receiver combinations in horizontally layered configurations. We compare the results of several of these modeled source-receiver combinations in a...
