In the present study, elastic body wave propagation in fluid-saturated porous media is investigated, and the analytical model is solved in terms of the model of soil mechanics. The potential function expressions of elastic body waves in fluid-saturated porous media with different permeability (i.e., finite, zero, and infinity) are derived by using potential functions of solid- and liquid-phase displacements. Then, the elastic wave dispersion equations are obtained by using the complex forms of the plane harmonic wave. Furthermore, in the case of finite, zero, and infinite permeability, the plane wave solutions of the elastic waves are derived and the analytical formulations of propagation velocities and attenuation coefficients are calculated. Finally, numerical examples are carried out to analyze the dispersion and attenuation characteristics of three waves (fast compressional wave P
1 , low compressional wave P2 , and shear wave S) in two-phase media. In addition, the effects of various properties (i.e., dynamic permeability coefficient, dissipation coefficient, porosity, and Poisson ratio) on the propagation characteristics of three waves are studied numerically. This study is of value to the wave propagation phenomenon as well as other related disciplines. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published
