title: On formulation of a transition matrix for electroporoelastic medium and application to analysis of scattered electroseismic wave.
abstract: On the basis of Pride's theory (1994) which couples Biot's theory for poroelastic medium (1956) and Maxwell equations via flux/force transport equations, we extend Yeh et al. (2004) approach for poroelastic medium to develop a transition matrix for electroporoelastic medium. The transition matrix, which relates the coefficients of scattered waves to those of incident waves, is then derived through the application of Betti's third identity and the associated orthogonality conditions for the electroporoelastic medium. To illustrate the application, a simple case of the scattering problem of a spherical electroporoelastic inclusion, embedded within the surrounding electroporoelastic medium subjected to an incident plane compressional wave is considered.
