The dynamic deformation of three-component porous media

A mathematical model of the dynamic deformation of three-component elastic media saturated with liquid and gas, given by elastic moduli and coefficients characterizing the porosity and compressibility of the liquid and gas, is considered. Formulas for determining the propagation velocity of monochromatic waves in ternary porous media are obtained. The existence of three longitudinal waves depends on the discriminant of a cubic equation and the velocity ratio.
