Abstract

There are the results of experimental and theoretical studies on the propagation of weak shock waves in the wet sand at different water saturation. There are mathematical model and numerical analysis of propagation of pressure pulses in porous media, taking into account capillary forces. Non-monotonic dependence of the amplitude of the wave resulting in a wet porous medium vs. the degree of water saturation is installed. The evolution of the fast, slow and filtration waves depends on the saturation of the system with water is analyzed. The influence of capillary forces on the propagation of longitudinal waves is evaluated.
