A rock physics model in vertical transverse isotropy media and its application to Eagle Ford shale

Shales are rocks with a complex structure. Shales contain high clay content, which constitutes a load‐bearing skeleton. In this study, we present a novel rock physics model to obtain elastic stiffness coefficients of both clays and shales. The robustness of the model is then verified by a field data...
