    The document outlines a lecture series on fundamentals of rock physics given by Dr. Aiman Bakhorji over six dates from December 9th to 25th in the ESD PC Lab from 3:30-4:45 PM. The series will cover topics including definitions of rock physics and petrophysics, basic rock parameters such as porosity and permeability, elastic rock properties such as P-wave and S-wave velocities, factors affecting elastic properties including lithology and fluid saturation, rock physics models and bounds, Gassmann's fluid substitution model, and experimental measurements of dynamic and static elastic rock properties.
