✦ Synopsis

A closed system of constitutive equations for the dynamical and geometric quantities in a fluid-saturated inhomogeneous elastic porous medium is constructed within the framework of the three-dimensional theory of elasticity. The geometrical characteristics of the wave front and of the ray in a fluid-saturated inhomogeneous medium are obtained from the Fermi's principle.
