Green's Function for Anisotropic-Isotropic Materials Using Stroh Formalism

Three-Dimensional Interfacial Green’s Function for Exponentially Graded Transversely Isotropic Bi-Materials

By virtue of a complete set of two displacement potentials, an analytical derivation of the elastostatic Green’s functions of an exponentially graded transversely isotropic bi-material full-space was presented. Three-dimensional point-load Green’s functions for stresses and displacements were given in line-integral representations. The formulation included a complete set of transformed stress-p...

Laser picosecond acoustics in isotropic and anisotropic materials

We present experimental results concerning the laser generation of picosecond acoustic pulses and their propagation in isotropic and anisotropic materials. We make use of a conventional reflectance detection technique as well as interferometric detection to probe the real and imaginary changes in reflectance. We also demonstrate the detection of transverse acoustic waves by mode conversion at a...

Modelling of the Magnetic Characteristics of Isotropic and Anisotropic Materials for Sensor Applications

The following paper presents the results of modelling of the magnetic characteristics of isotropic (Ni–Zn ferrite) and anisotropic material (Fe40Ni38Mo4B18 amorphous alloy in as quenched state), both useful for sensor applications. For the modelling an extended Jiles–Atherton model was used. Extension of the model connects model’s parameter k, describing average energy required to break pinning...
