1. Introduction

One of the pressing problems in underwater acoustics today is formulating and then solving a model for interaction of acoustic waves in a shallow ocean with the seabed. Shallow-water/seabed waveguide, direct and inverse wave propagation problems are ubiquitous in applied science and technology. One such application is for inverse imag- ing of objects submerged in the ocean or the seabed. As much of the acoustic energy passes into the seabed, this imagery is possible only if the sea environment (water, sediment, interfaces), in the absence of the object, is properly characterized beforehand. This means that a suitable model of the sediment and of propagation of sound therein must be developed and a method be proposed for solving the inverse problem of the identification of the mechanical parameters involved in this model. This model, as well as the sediment parameter and object identification scheme, must be able to take into account sound speed and density variations in the water as well as the behavior of sound in the seabed.

In general, either an acoustic pulse, or a monochromatic signal with frequency o is used. Consequently, not only acoustic signals with acoustic frequencies spread about a central frequency, but time-harmonic solutions are of interest. There have been several acoustic models of the seabed [9,10,16]; however, the primary one in usage goes back

to work of Biot [7,8], and Stall [25,26]. Biot’s work was rather heuristic; hence, several authors have sought to put this on a more solid footing, namely Sanchez-Palencia [23] (Chapter S), [6,24], Levy [18-201, Burridge and Keller [12]. Biot’s research relates to flow through a porous media as well as acoustic phenomena. Several authors after Biot have sought to characterize porous media. For example, Stoll [25] using a variant on the Biot model showed that energy dissipation due to the skeletal frame dominate at low frequencies whereas at higher frequencies interstitial fluids become dominant. For geophysical exploration frequencies used range from 1 Hz to over 100 kHz; hence, the concept of high and low frequency is relative to the particular sediment under consideration. Cheng et al. [ 131 showed for the time-harmonic case there exists an analogy between the poroelastic equations and the thermoelastic equations, for which the fundamental singular solutions are known. Hence, there is an interest in treating the time-harmonic case for practitioners in geophysics.

In the present paper we are interested in formulating a mathematical model to de- scribe the acoustic behavior of the seabed; however, the coupling between pore pressure diffusion and elastic matrix deformation in fluid impregnated rocks spawns a variety of time dependent phenomena [l]. This fact has also been mentioned by Auriault [5], who discusses the vibrational behavior of a porous media and offers a possible char- acterization according to reference values of certain physical quantities.

In the acoustic regime we tend to think frequently of monochromatic, plane waves and their refraction and scattering. If the region through which the wave passes is only slightly dispersive, that is, the viscous part of the fluid stress tensor is negligible in comparison to the pressure, monochromatic waves tend to remain monochromatic. This occurs for fluids which are slightly viscid, or inviscid. It is meaningful, therefore, for us to consider the case of time-harmonic waves of frequency o. In order to model this acoustic phenomena it is helpful to introduce dimensionless coordinates which are defined in terms of characteristic lengths and reference values of the physical parameters. Let 1 be the characteristic length of a microscopic cell, whereas L is the characteristic length at the macroscopic scale. We assume that the wavelength of the acoustic signal, /1, is related to the macroscopic length L by 2rcL = 2. The relation between I and L is given by the small parameter E, EL= 1. In terms of the characteristic lengths 1 and L we introduce the dimensionless coordinates y=X/I, and x=X/L, where X is taken to be a physical space variable. Then x = sy, and y is referred to as the

fast variable. The solid density is given by p,, the solid displacement by us, and the solid stress

tensor by 6;. In physical coordinates the equations of motion in the solid matrix are

given by

(1.1)

where 5; := Uijk/Dkl(US), &l being the components of the strain tensor. We assume that the magnitude of the coefficients in Hooke’s law for the solid matrix are of the same order of magnitude a with regard to a small parameter E, which will subsequently be defined. consequently, we have 6; = aoii, 6, = pops, Xj = lyj, uj = luj. Here po is a

reference density, and a a reference stress. By introducing the dimensionless variables cr = (A/u)&(u), yi, and Uj into the system (1 .l ) yields in the time-harmonic case

(1.2)

where PI = pow2 12/a, and o is the vibrational frequency. Since poo2/a= 0(X2), where the wavelength 3, is large with respect to cell size, we see that PI = O(E~). In what follows, we shall write o = 0~07 where wg is a reference frequency. Eq. (1.2) is then resealed as

c 2 = -&Gp+;. (1.3) j ‘I

In the pore space, the momentum equation is given by

(1.4)

where 6 is the fluid velocity, j the pressure and the stress tensor is 6;=2@;j(fi)- jI;,i. Introducing dimensionless physical variables, and setting fi= c/au and j = lppo, leads to the equation

We note that due to the continuity of displacements at the interfaces between the elastic matrix and the viscous fluid, and under assumption of absence of the time-like oscillations, it is natural to look for the velocity field in the form v = lduf/dt. Here uf stands for the dimensionless fluid displacement. Then (r?V)t?= Ui12(&f/dtV)&f/& and it is small with respect to %/lat only if Usl(auf/dtV)&f/& = o( 1). We suppose it for the moment, but it should be verified a posteriori. Then the momentum equation transforms into

c uopofl a2uf

1 i

ay’ - PO% + ~2PfPoUoluf = 0. J 1

Suppose we write Q, := Uopo~/pol = O(pLw/aE); then

Q/ c $ - $ - T,pfuf = 0, i J

(1.5)

where T, := - w2p~U~l/p~ = O(E). The value of Ql is directly related to the contrast of property number C := ,u~o/a [5].

The contrast of property number is a measure of how degenerate the fluid stress tensor gets. In general, a non-degenerate fluid tensor corresponds to a monophasic situation, whereas a degenerate tensor corresponds to the diphasic case. Hence, when effective p is small we tend to have a Biot-like regime. The contrast of property number, moreover, is related to the Strouhal number Sh, by Sh = 0(sP2C). Recall, also, that

Ql = O(E-’ C) = 0(&Y). Consequently, after introducing the global displacement u”, equal to uf in the fluid part and us in the elastic part, our system becomes in terms of the dimensionless physical quantities

There are three cases of potential interest; however, in this paper we only consider Model C:

Model A: C = O(E~), Sh = 0( 1 ), r = -2, diphasic macroscopic behavior of the fluid and solid matrix. This case was considered previously by Biot [7,8], Sanchez-Hubert [22], Sanchez-Palencia [24,23], Levy [ 181, Buchanan-Gilbert-Lin [9,10,16].

Model B: C = O(E), Sh = 0( E- ’ ), r = - 1, monophasic elastic macroscopic behavior. Model C: C=O( I), Sh=O(c2), Y = 0, monophasic viscoelastic, macroscopic behav-

ior. The case is discussed in great detail in the present paper, along with the special case of a slightly compressible fluid component. This monophasic, viscoelastic case has been also suggested by Buckingham [l 11, who derived a similar equation primarily through heuristic considerations.

We intend to investigate Models A and B in a subsequent paper.

I. I. Geometry of the medium

The porous medium we propose to study is obtained by a periodic arrangement of the pores. The formal description goes along the following lines:

Firstly we define the geometrical structure inside the unit cell Y=]O, I[“, n=2,3. Let %Yy, (the solid part) be a closed subset of @ and 5Yr = GY \ Y/s (the fluid part). Now we make the periodic repetition of ?Vs all over R” and set “Yf = @Yy, + k, k E Z”. Obviously the obtained closed set E, = UktZn @ is a closed subset of R” and Ef = [w” \ Es in

an open set in R”. Following Allaire [3] we make the following assumptions on ?Yr

and Ef : (i) ?Yr is an open connected set of strictly positive measure, with a Lipschitz boundary

and -?IS has strictly positive measure in !p as well. This condition is used only for

the decompositions (2.41), (2.42). (ii) Er and the interior of E, are open sets with the boundary of class Co.‘, which are

locally located on one side of their boundary. Moreover Ef is connected. Now we see that s1= IO, L[” is covered with a regular mesh of size E, each cell being a cube ?Yi’, with 1 5 i 5 N(E) = 1011:-“[ 1 + 0( l)]. Each cube !YF is homeomorphic to 9, by linear homeomorphism II::, being composed of translation and an homothety of ratio 11.5.

We define

#j = (~~)-‘($/S) . and ‘?yY;, = (nF)-‘(~g~).

For sufficiently small E > 0 we consider the sets

r,: = {k E Z]?Y$ c n},

K,: = {k E zn]a;k n 82 # S}

and define

Obviously, (soi = X2 U S”. The domains 0: and 0; represent, respectively, the solid and fluid parts of a porous medium R. For simplicity we suppose L/c E N”.

1.2. Two-scale convergence

In order to prove the main convergence results of this paper we use the notion of two-s&e convergence which was introduced in [21] and developed further in [4].

Definition 1. The sequence {w’} C L2( Q) is said to two-scale converge to a limit

w E L2(Q x ?Y) iff for any 0 E C”(Q; CPyr(?Y)) (“per” denotes I-periodicity) one has

Lemma 1. From each bounded sequence in L2(Q) one can extract a subsequence

which two-scale converges to a limit w E L2(Q x Y).

Proof. See [21]. q

Lemma 2. (i) Let wc and EV~W” be bounded sequences in L2(Q). Then there exists u

jimction w E L2(Q; H&(Y)) and a subsequence such that both w’: und E&W” two-scale converge to w and U,,w, respectively.

190 R.P. Gilbert, A. Mikelit I Nonlineur Analysis 40 (2000) 185-212

(ii) Let w” and V,wC be bounded sequences in L2(Q). Then there exists func-

tions w E L’(Q), UE L2(Q; Hi,,(%)) an a subsequence such that both w’: and VXw” d

two-scale converge to w and V.r~(~, t) + V,v(x, y, t), respectively.

Proof. See [4,21]. 0

Remark. Let CJ E L&(W), define o’(x) = c(x/E), and let the sequence {w”} c L2(Q)

two-scale converge to a limit w E L2(Q x Vu>. Then {aCwC} two-scale converges to a limit 0w.

If we have two different estimates for gradients in the solid and in the fluid part, then the classical way to proceed is by extending the deformation from ni to fl and then passing to the limit E -+ 0. The recent results on homogenization of Neumann problems in perforated domains of general type (see [2] and also the book by Jikov et al. [ 171) suggest that it is enough to suppose the Lipschitz regularity for the pore boundaries.

2. Monophasic viscoelastic macroscopic behavior (r = 1)

In this section we use the following notations: let R :=]O,L[“, n = 2,3 denote an L

cell, 0: be the solid part of R, and C$ be the fluid part of 0. The fluid-solid interface is indicated by I?[: := 80: n 60;. We assume that in the solid part, GE, the equations of linear elasticity hold

gSJ = AD(u”), D(u’:);j := - ; (!!c+Z), (2.1)

where U’ is the displacement of the solid part and 8”’ is the stress tensor. The equations

of motion are given by (32UC

ps T - div(AD(u”)) = Fp, (2.2)

in Qi x 10, T[. In the fluid part we have the Stokes system describing the motion

(32u’:

(2.4)

(2.5)

where &“/at is the fluid velocity and p’: is the Iluid pressure. The transition conditions between fluid and solid parts are given by the continuity

of displacement

[u”] = 0 on Q x 10, T[, (2.6)

At the exterior boundary we

assume periodicity, namely that the

(2.8)

assume that there is no flow or deformation at t = 0,

(2.9)

We may reformulate the system, Eqs. (2.1)-(2.9) as a variational problem, namely

find uc E C’([O, T]; Lier(0)“> n C([O, T];H~,,(fit)“) and p” E g’(]O, t[;L2(02;)) such that

div g = 0 in fig x IO, 7’[, (2.12)

Pr: = iqPf + Xrt;Ps, (2.13)

and XA is the characteristic function of A.

It is trivial to establish the following a priori estimates starting with Eqs. (2.1)- (2.9), using the C’([O, T]; Hder(0)“) short-time regularity and setting cp = du”/dt as the test function in (2.10):

Likewise

(2.19)

For future discussions, we assume, for simplicity of exposition, that

F E H’(0, T; L2(Q”). (2.20)

It is necessary for us to extend the definition of the pressure field which is initially defined only on 0; x 10, T[, to all of 0” x 10, T[. This poses no difficulty, as we set

$(x, t) - h R, p”(x, t) dx,

j’(x, t) :=

2. I. Two-scale convergence

The a priori estimates (2.14), (2.23) and elementary properties of two-scale conver- gence imply that for Vt E [0, T] there are subsequences {u’:, p”} such that

which implies (2.27). Now let the test function be cp(x,y) = cpl(x)q~(y), cp1 E Cc(f2) and (~2 E C,“(!Y,).

Then

Proof. It is sufficient to prove that for F = 0 we have only the trivial solution u” = 0, U’ = 0 and p” = 0. First we set cp = duo/& and $ = au’/& as the test functions in

from which we conclude duo/& = 0 and then (2.37) implies u” E 0. Next we conclude

Let us turn to the pressure p”. Since so s,,.(p’-( l/pYsl) St,, p’)div, $=O, ‘@E Corn

(Q Cgr(g/>“) implies p” = & p” dy. But (2.37) implies s,(J!V,,, p” dy)div,cp = 0 and,

hence, J,# ~‘dy=: C(t). Since u” E 0 and U’ E 0 we have so sjV p”=O which implies C(t) G 0 which is uniqueness. Cl

2.3. Derivation of the effective equations of’ u”

The system (2.34)-(2.38) is too complicated to be used directly. Since we have established uniqueness above, we seek solutions to (2.35) in a particular form involving separation of scales.

In particular, we seek for {u’ , p”} in the form

(2.41)

Let us now derive equations for new functions in representation formulas. The incompressibility condition (2.38) implies

Now we substitute the decompositions (2.41) and(2.42) into (2.35) to obtain

Problem (2.54), (2.55) is a linear evolution equation for u” only and much simpler than the two-scale system (2.34)-(2.38). It remains to prove that (a) the fourth order tensors &, 98 and % are well-defined, i.e. that the auxiliary prob-

Then for v E v we have a(v, u) = J!Y, (D,“(u)[‘. Jf a(v, u) = 0, then u is a periodic rigid

Now by the Lax-Milgram lemma we have the desired result. 0

Z/ and Z; are periodic and Ef and fyf are connected. This implies that CI = 0, A12 = 0, A,, =O, A2? =O.

The case for R3 may be similarly treated. This implies that for n = 2,3 there exists

we pass to the limit N 4 o in (2.66) and obtain that every cluster point 5 satisfies (2.65). Since the problem (2.65) has at most one solution in W, we have [ = 5.

Now, existence of rcq E L2((0, T) x %Vy,) satisfying the first of Eqs. (2.50) is obvi- ous. Uniqueness of rev is a consequence of the surjectivity of the operator div and assumptions on the geometry. 0

Establishing the same property for B’ and g(t) is not clear. However, we have the following result, which is sufficient for the study of (2.54), (2.55):

which proves the lemma. 0

Existence for the problem (2.54), (2.55) can be proved using the methods of Laplace’s transform or the variational methods (see e.g. the exhaustive textbook Dautray and Lions [ 141). However, we have existence by construction and only uniqueness is needed.

Since we are interested only in evolution on [0, T], we suppose F = 0 for t > T and t < 0. Then the constants in the uniform a priori estimates (2.14)-(2.16) have at most a polynomial growth in T and the domain of existence of the Hilbert-space-valued distri-

butional Laplace transform 9’(u”) is IO, +cc[. For more details on Laplace’s transform of Banach-space-valued distributions we refer to Dautray and Lions [14].

We have the following result.

Lemma 12. Let v E .@+(R, H&(fl>n), e@‘v E L2(0, fx; H&(02>n) and e&l dv/dt E

L*(O, +x;H&(~2)“), 6 > 0 be a solution for (2.54), (2.55). Then such solution is unique.

Proof. Let us consider a solution u corresponding to F = 0. Then, due to the assump- tions, we can apply Laplace’s transform to (2.54). We obtain

fiche& - div, {(y.zI + .3 + @(r))D~,(%)} = 0 in 0,

where ?/ = P’(v), G(y) E H&(n)“, Vy > 6 > 0. Then Lemma 11 implies @ = 0 and uniqueness is proved. 0

Then we have

{u’,u’, p”} be given by (2.54), (2.55), (2.41) and (2.42), respec- define the unique solution for (2.34)-(2.38). Furthermore, we have

3. The slightly compressible monophasic elastic behavior

As we assume the fluid is slightly compressible, we are able to remove the pres-

sure from Eq. (2.4) by assuming that the variation of pressure from the rest state is

small and that Ap x -c2pf divu’:. This can be considered as a “regularized” version

of the incompressible case from Section 2 and we just give a short outline of the

homogenization procedure. Now the variational formulation (2.10) becomes: Find U” E C’([O, T]; L2(fl)n) fl

C([O, T]; Hde,(Sl>n) such that

The estimates (2.14)-(2.16) apply once more. Passing to the two-scale limit is iden- tical, only we replace Eq. (2.3 1) in Section 2 by

Following the analysis of Section 2 we have that the doublet {u”, u’} E H3(0, T; L2(fl)n) n H2(0, ?“;H&(02>n) x H2(0, T; L2(s1; ff’(?g)/R)“) satisfies the system

As before to show uniqueness it is sufficient to prove that for F = 0 we have only the trivial solution u” = 0, u’ = 0. Taking qn = du’/dt, and II/ = du’ldt as test functions in (3.5), (3.6), we obtain after adding the two equations together that

Now as in the Section 2 we argue that duo(t)/& = 0, which because of the initial conditions implies u” = 0. Again we have that DJu’(t)) = 0, which implies by the previous arguments that u’(t) = 0. This is uniqueness.

As before we construct the solution U’ in a special form, namely

J t

It is reduced to proving that the effective tensor composed of the Laplace transforms y&.yIco + B.s[CO + +co is positive definite. Establishing the required positive definiteness is along the same lines as in the proof of Lemma 11, with - J!Y, p”Tr A replaced by

c2pr sfY, (Tr h $ div, I’“) Tr A. In fact, the slightly incompressible case can be considered as a penalization of the

incompressible case. Even if the equation seems to be a bit simpler, in fact it is not the case since c2 is big and the terms like divyd’j + bkl are likely to be small. Therefore, its correct study requires knowledge of the incompressible case.

4. Concluding remarks

The homogenized behavior of the incompressible viscous fluid in the elastic porous medium is described by Eqs. (2.54) and (2.55). This equation enters the equations of the linear viscoelusticity, i.e. our mixture consisting of an incompressible viscous fluid and an elastic solid has an overall viscoelastic behavior.

This confirms the observation made by Burridge and Keller [ 121, who found by means of an asymptotic expansion the effective transformed equations. They observed dependence of the tensors in effective constitutive laws on y, i.e. viscoelastic effects.

However, they did not get the problem (2.54), (2.55). Also their argument was only formal. We should add that Biot [25] also introduced viscoelastic effects into his system of equations, but in a rather heuristic manner; i.e. he assumes certain coefficients after one has transformed to the frequency domain are actually dependent on the frequency CO. In the time domain these coefficients become nonlinear differential operators of d/at. He then linearizes these operator using the method of Kryloff and Bogliuboff. Hence, in a sense the present paper may also be thought as a justification of Biot’s heuristic approach.

We note that the effective stress in (2.54) has three constitutive parts. The first is .&‘&(c%~/&). d is a viscosity tensor and represents a contribution coming from the effective elementary stresses in the fluid.

The second part is S?&(u”). 99 is an instantaneous elasticity tensor and it contains the combined effects of the effective elementary stresses from the elastic structure with the effective response of the fluid to the stress from the elastic part caused by the flow.

Finally, we have the term sd %‘(t - r)Dx(uO(r))dr corresponding to the long memory effects. It is a spatial average of the time evolution of the stresses due to the interaction fluid/structure, which is initially caused by the flow effects.

We note that the &xtive physical dejbrmation is lu’, due the scaling in the introduction. Also, it is important to note that since the gradient of u’. is uniformly bounded in L*, the inertial term coming from the fluid part is much smaller than the first time derivative of the fluid velocity. This justifies neglecting the inertia and dealing with the Stokes system.
