Effect of fluid-solid friction on the stiffness of chalk
Chalks behave weaker at water saturated condition. We studied this softening effect as a function of Biot’s frequency ratio, which is a ratio between measured ultrasonic wave frequency and Biot critical frequency, fc. Kinematic viscosity of fluid and permeability of rock determines fc. We observed that rocks saturated with higher kinematic viscosity fluid are stiffer.
