Analysis of Wave Motion in a Micropolar Transversely Isotropic Medium
Authors
Abstract:
The present investigation deals with the propagation of waves in a micropolar transversely isotropic layer. Secular equations for symmetric and skew-symmetric modes of wave propagation in completely separate terms are derived. The amplitudes of displacements and microrotation were also obtained. Finally, the numerical solution was carried out for aluminium epoxy material and the dispersion curves. Amplitudes of displacements and microrotation for symmetric and skew-symmetric wave modes are presented to evince the effect of anisotropy. Some particular cases are also deduced.

Elasto-Thermodiffusive Response in a Two-Dimensional Transversely Isotropic Medium
The present article investigates the elasto-thermodiffusive interactions in a transversely isotropic elastic medium in the context of thermoelasticity with one relaxation time parameter and two relation time parameters. The resulting non-dimensional coupled equations are applied to a specific problem of a half-space in which the surface is free of tractions and is subjected to time-dependent th...

Rayleigh waves in a half-space exhibiting microplar transversely isotropic generalized thermoelastic properties based on the Lord-Shulman (L-S), Green and Lindsay (G-L) and Coupled thermoelasticty (C-T) theories are discussed. The phase velocity and attenuation coefficient in the previous three different theories have been obtained. A comparison is carried out of the phase velocity, attenuation...

The present investigation is concerned with the reflection of plane waves from a free surface of a micropolar thermoelastic diffusion half space in the context of coupled theory of thermoelastic diffusion. The amplitude ratios of various reflected waves are obtained in a closed form. The dependence of these amplitude ratios with an angle of propagation as well as other material parameter are sh...

The present paper is dealing with the propagation of Rayleigh surface waves in a homogeneous transversely isotropic medium .This thermo-dynamical analysis is carried out in the context of three-phase-lags thermoelasticity model. Three phase lag model is very much useful in the problems of nuclear boiling, exothermic catalytic reactions, phonon-electron interactions, phonon scattering etc. The n...
full textAcoustic wave scattering from transversely isotropic cylinders
Mathematical expressions are derived for the far-field backscattering amplitude spectrum resulting from oblique insonification of an infinite, transversely isotropic elastic cylinder by a plane acoustic wave. The normal-mode solution is based on decoupling of the scalar potential representing the horizontally polarized shear wave from those of the compressional and vertically polarized waves. T...
full textWave Equations in Transversely Isotropic Media in Terms of Potential Functions (RESEARCH NOTE)
A complete series of potential functions for solving the wave equations in an almost transversely isotropic media is presented. The potential functions are reduced to only one potential function particularly for axisymmetric wave propagation problems. The potential functions presented in this paper can be reduced to Lekhnitskii-Hu-Nowacki solution for elastostatics problems.
