Course content
|
These lectures deal with the physical properties of rocks studied both in the laboratory and in the field. The aim is to acquaint students with the theoretical foundations of rock physics, with the main methodological procedures, and to demonstrate the results on several typical examples. The aim is to show the complexity of rock physics, given the complexity of the studied material, especially due to its chemistry, inhomogeneity and anisotropy. During the lectures, students will learn the following topics: Introduction to rock physics Basics of descriptive statistics Density Mechanical resistance of rocks Propagation of acoustic waves in rocks Electrical properties of rocks Magnetic properties Thermal properties
