Fracturing Experiments

The transition from recoverable elastic to permanent inelastic deformation is marked by the onset of fracturing in the brittle field. Detection of this transition in materials is crucial to predict imminent failure/fracturing. We have used an ultrasonic pulse transmission method to record the change in waveform across this transition during fracturing experiments. The transition from elastic to inelastic deformation coincides with a minimum in ultrasonic attenuation (i.e., maximum wave amplitude). Prior to this attenuation minimum, the existing microfractures close. After this minimum, new microfractures form and attenuation increases until peak stress conditions, at which point, larger fractures form leading to complete sample failure. In our experiments, velocity changes are not sensitive enough to be indicative for the transition from elastic to inelastic deformation. Analysis of attenuation, not velocity, may thus detect imminent failure in materials. Our results may help detect fracturing in borehole casings or the near-wellbore area, or they may help predict imminent release of energy by seismic rupture.

Citrate Precursor

CoxZn1-xFe2O4 nanoparticles were prepared by chemical citrate precursor synthesis method. The Young’s modulus ‘E’ and the rigidity modulus ‘n’ of mixed cobalt-zinc ferrites have been determined by the ultrasonic pulse transmission technique at 1 MHz. The elastic modules of the ferrites were corrected to zero porosity using the formulae of Harselman and Fulrath. The observed variation of the elastic module with composition has been interpreted on the basis of binding forces between the atoms of the spinal lattice. A linear relationship between Debye temperature ØD and average sound velocity Vm has also been observed.

Ultrasonic Pulse Transmission

This paper contains laboratory measurements of the temperature dependence of velocities, determined by ultrasonic pulse transmission methods, in hydrocarbon liquids and rock samples saturated by the liquids. The samples discussed include 26 hydrocarbons of varying molecular weight, nine mixtures of these hydrocarbons, four heavy oils (tar), three saturated sandstones, and a saturated sand. The data provide encouragement that high‐frequency, high‐resolution seismic techniques may infer formation temperature changes, thereby detecting the progress of thermal enhanced oil recovery processes.
