Although P‐ and S‐wave dispersion is known to be important in porous/cracked rocks, theoretical predictions of such dispersions have never been given. We report such calculations and show that the predicted dispersions are high in the case of low aspect ratio cracks [Formula: see text] or high crack density [Formula: see text]. Our calculations are derived from first‐principle computations of the high‐ and low‐frequency elastic moduli of a rock permeated by an isotropic distribution of pores or cracks, dry or saturated, with idealized geometry (spheres or ellipsoids). Henyey and Pomphrey developed a differential self‐consistent model that is shown to be a good approximation. This model is used here, but as it considers cracks with zero thickness, it can not account for fluid content effects. To remove this difficulty, we combine the differential self‐consistent approach with a purely elastic calculation of moduli in two cases: that of spherical pores and that of oblate spheroidal cracks with a nonzero volume. This leads to what we call the “extended differential, self‐consistent model” (EM). When combining these EM results with the Gassmann equation, it is possible to derive and compare the theoretical predictions for high‐ and low‐frequency effective moduli in the case of a saturated rock. Since most laboratory data are ultrasonic measurements and in situ data are obtained at much lower frequencies, this comparison is useful for interpreting seismic data in terms of rock and fluid properties. The predicted dispersions are high, in agreement with previous experimental results. A second comparison is made with the semi‐empirical model of Marion and Nur, which considers the effects of a mixed porosity (round pores and cracks together).

AbstractPhotometric and spectroscopic observations of a very large flare on AD Leo are presented. A self consistent model of a flare corona, transition region and chromosphere is developed; in particular the chromospheric temperature distributions resulting from X-ray and EUV irradiation by coronae of various temperatures are determined. The predicted line fluxes in Hγ are compared to the observed line fluxes to find the coronal temperature as a function of time during the flare. This run of temperature with time is then compared with the predictions of an independent theoretical flare model based on a dynamic scaling law (see paper by Fisher and Hawley, these proceedings).

The rules for the lattice rotation during rolling (plane strain) deformation of fcc polycrystals are studied with a viscoplastic self-consistent model. Very high values of the ratesensitivity exponent are used in order to establish Sachs-type conditions with large local deviations from the macroscopic strain. The lattice rotation depends on the grain shape. For equiaxed grains the lattice rotation follows the MA rule, which is the one normally used in solid mechanics. For elongated and flat grains the lattice rotation follows a different rule, the PSA rule. In the standard version the model performs a transition from MA to PSA with increasing strain. There is avery clear difference between the textures resulting from the two different rules. MA leads to a copper-type texture, and PSA leads to a brass-type texture.
