Abstract
SUMMARY We develop a method to compute frequency-dependent kinematic parameters for an effective orthorhombic (ORT) medium. In order to investigate the influence of fracture weaknesses on the kinematic parameters, the effective ORT medium is composed based on the linear slip theory and derived by applying the limited Baker–Campbell–Hausdorff series. The frequency-dependent kinematic parameters including vertical velocity, two normal moveout velocities defined in vertical symmetry planes, and three anelliptic parameters (two of them are defined in vertical symmetry plane and one parameter is the cross-term one). We also investigate the influence of volume fraction, frequency, velocity ratio and fracture weaknesses on the effective kinematic parameters.
