Abstract
The anelastic properties of real materials, particularly of porous rocks, are described using the theory of linear viscoelasticity based on Boltzmann's superposition principle. Wave-propagation simulation with this model requires implementing the convolutional relation in the equation of motion. A pseudospectral time-integration technique is used to solve the equation of motion. Applications of viscoacoustic modeling suggest the need for considering the correct attenuation-dispersion effects for various fundamental seismic problems in anelastic earth models. -from Authors
