Data-driven rational function neural networks: a new method for generating analytical models of rock physics
Weitao Sun
Seismic wave velocity of underground rock plays important role in detecting internal structure of the Earth. Rock physics models have long been the focus of predicting wave velocit…
On the theory of Biot-patchy-squirt mechanism for wave propagation in partially saturated double-porosity medium
Weitao Sun
Reservoir rocks are usually composed of a coherent heterogeneous porous matrix saturated by multiple fluids. At long wavelength limit, the composite material of solid skeleton is u…
Are mouse and cat the missing link in the COVID-19 outbreaks in seafood markets?
Daniel H. Tao, Weitao Sun
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus caused the novel coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) affecting the whole world. Like SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV, SARS-…
The effect of Maxwellian fluid on wave propagation in porous media
Weitao Sun, Fansheng Xiong
This study investigates the effect of a Maxwellian fluid on the propagation of waves in poroelastic media. Based on a fractional derivative stress-strain relation, a viscous dissip…
