Technical note—wood's equation revisited
Wood's equation, originally proposed for uniform fluid suspensions, can describe the relationship of the compressional wave velocity, density, and the compressibility for high‐porosity, fine‐grained sediments. Wood's equation predicts that these sediments can have compressional wave velocity lower than the overlying water. This acoustical behavior is verified by showing that the minimum compressional wave velocity of these sediments predicted from Wood's equation is always less than or equal to the compressional wave velocity of water. Practical expressions are also derived for the fractional porosity of these sediments for which (1) the sediment compressional wave velocity becomes minimum and (2) the sediment compressional wave velocity becomes the same as that of water.
