Elastic energy propagation in a strongly scattering 1D laboratory model

Laboratory ultrasonics provides an ideal opportunity for studying wave propagation in random media. Models are relatively easy to construct and both the phase and amplitude of the wave field can be measured, so we can separate the coherent from the incoherent intensity. Here we show detailed measurements of wave propagation in a 1D strongly scattering medium that fit the theory of radiative tra...

Mechanics of 2D Elastic Stress Waves Propagation Impacted by Concentrated Point Source Disturbance in Composite Material Bars

Green’s function, an analytical approach in inhomogeneous linear differential equations, is the impulse response, which is applied for deriving the wave equation solution in composite materials mediums. This paper investigates the study of SH wave’s transmission influenced by concentrated point source disturbance in piezomagnetic material resting over heterogeneous half-space. Green function ap...

Wave Propagation at the Boundary Surface of Elastic Layer Overlaying a Thermoelastic Without Energy Dissipation Half-space

The present investigation is to study the surface wave propagation at imperfect boundary between an isotropic thermoelastic without energy dissipation half-space and an isotropic elastic layer of finite thickness. The penetration depth of longitudinal, transverse, and thermal waves has been obtained. The secular equation for surface waves in compact form is derived after developing the mathemat...

Stress Wave Propagation in Elastic-elastic and Elastic-viscoelastic Bilaminates

In the present study normal plate-impact experiments are conducted to investigate the propagation of acceleration waves in 2-D layered material systems. The objective of these experiments is to understand the role of material architecture and material inelasticity in controlling precursor decay and late-time dispersion of acceleration waves in elastic-elastic and elasticviscoelastic laminates. ...
