Popis: The propagation of acoustic waves in a poro-elastic medium of infinite extension containing spherical cavities randomly distributed is investigated. The scattering coefficients are computed in the low frequency limit using the sealed pore boundary conditions. Also in this limit, using explicit Waterman-Truell (WT) formulas and a generalization of the Linton-Martin (LM) formula to poro-elastic medium, expressions of the wave numbers of the coherent waves are proposed. Expressions of the effective mass densities and moduli are derived from the WT formulas. The effective properties of the coherent wave in an elastic medium are obtained as a limiting case when the porosity tends towards zero.
