Abstract
An electromagnetic source or sources in a sonde in a well bore is caused to emit electromagnetic forces into the well casing. The electromagnetic forces cause displacement of the casing, inducing acoustic waves. The acoustic waves may be either P-waves or S-waves, depending on the type of electromagnetic source used. The response of earth formations to the acoustic waves, once detected, is used to detect fractures in the formations.
