Book Transient Elastic Waves in Anisotropic Plates

Download or read book Transient Elastic Waves in Anisotropic Plates written by R. A. SCOTT and published by . This book was released on 1965 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For some classes of anisotropic media and certain orientations of the axes of symmetry, plane-strain and torsional motions are possible in elastic plates. Using the linear equations of motion, the solutions to several time-dependent boundary value problems which generate such motions are derived, by means of multi-integral transform techniques. The problems considered are (i) sudden symmetric application of normal line loads on the surfaces of an infinite plate; (ii) sudden application of a normal displacement, together with zero shear stress, at the edge of a semi-infinite plate, whose lateral surfaces are stress-free; (iii) sudden application of a normal stress, together with zero lateral displacement, at the edge of a semi-infinite plate, whose lateral surfaces are stress-free and (iv) impulsive torsional loading of the surfaces of an infinite plate by means of concentrated torques. In problems (i), (ii), and (iii), far-field information is obtained by means of a low frequency, small wavenumber approximation, and numerical results are presented for ice, zinc, copper, and several isotropic media for comparison purposes.

Book Transient Elastic Waves in Infinite Anisotropic Plates

Download or read book Transient Elastic Waves in Infinite Anisotropic Plates written by Richard A. Scott and published by . This book was released on 1966 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For certain classes of materials and orientations of the axes of symmetry, the equations of motion of alinear, anisotropic, elastic solid admit of plane-strain solutions. A problem is considered in which such motions are generated, namely, the application of an impulsive, normal, line load, parallel to one of the crystallographic axes, on one face of an infinite plate. It is found that two basic situations arise, depending on whether certain branch points are complex, or real and pure imaginary, and in the former case the solution on the epicentral axis is obtained. This solution is analyzed numerically for several anisotropic media, and isotropic media for comparison purposes. (Author).

Book Elastic Waves in Anisotropic Laminates

Download or read book Elastic Waves in Anisotropic Laminates written by G.R. Liu and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2001-11-13 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ultrasonic non-destructive evaluation (NDE) plays an increasingly important role in determining properties and detecting defects in composite materials, and the analysis of wave behavior is crucial to effectively using NDE techniques. The complexity of elastic wave propagation in anisotropic media has led to a reliance on numerical methods of analysis-methods that are often quite time-consuming and whose results yield even further difficulties in extracting explicit phenomena and characteristics. Innovative and insightful, Elastic Waves in Anisotropic Laminates establishes a set of high-performance, analytical-numerical methods for elastic wave analysis of anisotropic layered structures. The treatment furnishes a comprehensive introduction, sound theoretical development, and applications to smart materials, plates, and shells. The techniques, detailed in both the time and frequency domains, include methods that combine the finite element method (FEM) with the Fourier transform approach and the strip element method (SEM). These -methods can also be used for expediently finding the Green's function for anisotropic laminates useful for inverse problems related to wave propagation, and methods for inverse analyses, including conjugate gradient methods, and genetic algorithms are also introduced. The text is complemented by many examples generated using software codes based on the techniques developed. Filled with charts and illustrations, Elastic Waves in Anisotropic Laminates is accessible even to readers from non-engineering backgrounds and offers a unique opportunity to discover methods that can lead to an understanding of the dynamic characteristics and wave motion behaviors of advanced composite materials.

Book Transient Non axisymmetric Waves in Transversely Isotropic Elastic Plates

Download or read book Transient Non axisymmetric Waves in Transversely Isotropic Elastic Plates written by Richard A. Scott and published by . This book was released on 1967 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using the equations of motion from linear elasticity, the formal solutions to a class of non-axisymmetric wave propagation problems involving a transversely isotropic plate are obtained. Inversion, on the epicentral axis and for a certain class of materials, is carried out explicitly for the particular problem of the application of a point shear load, with a 'ramp' time-dependence, to one face of the plate, and the results are analyzed numerically for several anisotropic and isotropic solids.

Book Elastic wave propagation in transversely isotropic media

Download or read book Elastic wave propagation in transversely isotropic media written by R.C. Payton and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this monograph I record those parts of the theory of transverse isotropic elastic wave propagation which lend themselves to an exact treatment, within the framework of linear theory. Emphasis is placed on transient wave motion problems in two- and three-dimensional unbounded and semibounded solids for which explicit results can be obtained, without resort to approximate methods of integration. The mathematical techniques used, many of which appear here in book form for the first time, will be of interest to applied mathematicians, engeneers and scientists whose specialty includes crystal acoustics, crystal optics, magnetogasdynamics, dislocation theory, seismology and fibre wound composites. My interest in the subject of anisotropic wave motion had its origin in the study of small deformations superposed on large deformations of elastic solids. By varying the initial stretch in a homogeneously deformed solid, it is possible to synthesize aniso tropic materials whose elastic parameters vary continuously. The range of the parameter variation is limited by stability considerations in the case of small deformations super posed on large deformation problems and (what is essentially the same thing) by the of hyperbolicity (solids whose parameters allow wave motion) for anisotropic notion solids. The full implication of hyperbolicity for anisotropic elastic solids has never been previously examined, and even now the constraints which it imposes on the elasticity constants have only been examined for the class of transversely isotropic (hexagonal crystals) materials.

Book Introduction to Elastic Wave Propagation

Download or read book Introduction to Elastic Wave Propagation written by Anthony Bedford and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-11-05 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This revised and updated edition expands on its explanations of methods used to analyze waves in solid materials, such as the waves created by earthquakes and the ultrasonic waves used to detect flaws in materials and for medical diagnoses. In addition to the traditional methods used to analyze steady-state and transient waves in elastic materials, the book contains introductions to advanced areas that no other single text covers. These topics include the use of finite elements to solve wave problems, the Cagniard-de Hoop method, the four-pole technique for analyzing waves in layered media, and the growth and decay of shock and acceleration waves. The authors explain the theory of linear elasticity through the displacement equations of motion, methods used to analyze steady-state and transient waves in layered media, and include an appendix on functions of a complex variable. Originally developed for a graduate course for which no suitable text existed, the new edition retains its classroom-tested treatment of the theories of linear elasticity and complex variables for students needing background in those subjects.

Book Wave Propagation in Elastic Solids

Download or read book Wave Propagation in Elastic Solids written by J. D. Achenbach and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2016-01-21 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wave Propagation in Elastic Solids focuses on linearized theory and perfectly elastic media. This book discusses the one-dimensional motion of an elastic continuum; linearized theory of elasticity; elastodynamic theory; and elastic waves in an unbounded medium. The plane harmonic waves in elastic half-spaces; harmonic waves in waveguides; and forced motions of a half-space are also elaborated. This text likewise covers the transient waves in layers and rods; diffraction of waves by a slit; and thermal and viscoelastic effects, and effects of anisotropy and nonlinearity. Other topics include the summary of equations in rectangular coordinates, time-harmonic plane waves, approximate theories for rods, and transient in-plane motion of a layer. This publication is a good source for students and researchers conducting work on the wave propagation in elastic solids.
