Modeling and experiments with low‐frequency pressure wave propagation in liquid‐filled, flexible tubes

Pressure Wave Propagation in Liquid-Filled Tubes of Viscoelastic Material

The propagation of small-amplitude waves in a thick-walled long viscoelastic tube of variable cross-section, filled with a viscous incompressible fluid, is considered with account for wave reflection at the tube end in application to arterial pulse wave propagation. A solution is obtained in the form of expansions in a small parameter. The effect of the coefficient of wave reflection at the tub...

Wave propagation in elastic tubes

Adaptive Wave Propagation Modeling

This paper discusses several current attempts to use acoustic and electromagnetic wave propagation for modeling physical phenomena and the role that wavelet analysis is playing in these eeorts. The rst problem involves recent application of wavelets to computational uid dynamics. The second problem involves geophysical modeling of the ocean oor, using acoustic waves, and wavelets have recently ...

Wave Propagation in Sandwich Panel with Auxetic Core

Auxetic cellular solids in the forms of honeycombs and foams have great potential in a diverse range of applications, including as core material in curved sandwich panel composite components, radome applications, directional pass band filters, adaptive and deployable structures, filters and sieves, seat cushion material, energy absorption components, viscoelastic damping materials and fastening...

Pressure wave propagation in a granular bed.

The transmission of pressure waves in granular materials is complicated by the heterogeneity and nonlinearity inherent in these systems. Such waves are propagated through particle contacts primarily along the "force chains" which carry most of the load in granular materials. These fragile and ephemeral chains coupled with irregular particle packing lead to the observed heterogeneity. Nonlineari...
