Apparatus and techniques for acoustic logging tool modeling
Apparatus and techniques described herein include receiving information indicative of a first cylindrical shell representing a portion of an acoustic logging tool, receiving information indicative of a second cylindrical shell concentrically surrounding the first cylindrical shell, the second cylindrical shell representing a second portion of the acoustic logging tool, and the second cylindrical shell comprising a fluid metal model including a non-zero density, a non-zero compressional wave propagation velocity, and a shear wave propagation velocity of zero or about zero. Information is determined indicative of an acoustic dispersion comprising a slowness (or other information indicative of a propagation velocity) of a wave propagating along the acoustic logging tool using a model including the first and second cylindrical shells.
