Abstract
The variations of linear and nonlinear elastic parameters as a function of initial stress and material structure are considered using a model of a granular medium with fluid pore filling. Examples of such variations for some geological conditions interesting for seismoprospecting are presented. It is demonstrated that the nonlinear parameter may be used in exploration seismology as a much more sensitive characteristic compared with conventionally exploited linear moduli.
