Abstract

The norm of elastic constant tensor and the norms of the irreducible parts of the elastic constants of different types of rocks (Shaley sand, Sandstone, Shale, Dol.Shale) which are taken from different wells at different depths are calculated. The relation of the scalar parts norm and the other parts norms and the anisotropy of these rocks are presented. The norm ratios are used to study anisotropy of these rocks, and the relationship between the anisotropy of these rocks and other physical properties is represented.
