On the Interphase Heat Transfer Effect on Nonlinear Wave Propagation in a Gas-Liquid Mixture

The effect of interphase heat transfer on shock wave propagation is investigated. A multiwave nonlinear equation which in the limiting case of the absence of heat transfer decomposes into two classic generalizations of the Boussinesq equations is derived. Quasi-isothermal and quasi-adiabatic propagation regimes for which the heat transfer is fairly intense are considered. For both regimes, nonlinear equations describing the wave propagation are obtained. The equation describing the first regime is investigated in detail. Exact analytic solutions of this equation are given and used to study the shock wave structures and the solitary wave behavior. Formulas for the dependence of the heat transfer rate on the equilibrium-mixture parameters are obtained.

基于波前动量守恒理论和位移不连续方法所提出的时域分析新方法,引入岩石非线性法向本构关系,对弹性纵波在岩石非线性节理中的传播特性进行了理论分析。采用节理变形的双曲线模型(BB模型),获得纵波P波斜入射非线性节理的传播波动方程,并通过参数研究分析了在岩石节理中节理非线性系数、节理初始刚度、应力波入射角和入射波幅值等因素对纵波传播规律的影响。结果表明:所推导的应力波传播方程在考虑多种非线性问题时,通过迭代计算即可方便求出透射波和反射波的数值解,避免了复杂的数学运算;当波斜入射节理面时,产生了波型转换,节理变形的非线性对透射波和反射波有较大影响,透射系数和反射系数并非随着非线性参数的变化而单调变化。时域内所推导的波传播方程更有益于波斜入射时非线性参数的广泛研究,为开展该方面的理论研究工作提供了借鉴。     

Wave propagation in nonlinear and hysteretic media––a numerical study

This paper considers the problem of one dimensional wave propagation in nonlinear, hysteretic media. The constitutive law in the media is prescribed by an integral relationship based on the Duhem model of hysteresis. It is found that the well known nonlinear elastic stress–strain relationship is a special case of this integral relationship. It is also shown that the stress–strain relationship from the McCall and Guyer model of hyesteretic materials can also be derived from this integral stress–strain relationship. The first part of this paper focuses on a material with a quadratic stress–strain relationship, where the initial value problem is formulated into a system of conservation laws. Analytical solutions to the Riemann problem are obtained by solving the corresponding eigenvalue problem and serve as reference for the verification and illustration of the accuracy obtained using the applied numerical scheme proposed by Kurganov and Tadmor. The second part of this research is devoted to wave propagation in hysteretic media. Several types of initial excitations are presented in order to determine special characteristics of the wave propagation due to material nonlinearity and hysteresis. The results of this paper demonstrate the accuracy and the robustness of this numerical scheme to analyze wave propagation in nonlinear materials.

Symplectic analysis for wave propagation in one-dimensional nonlinear periodic structures

The wave propagation problem in the nonlinear periodic mass-spring structure chain is analyzed using the symplectic mathematical method. The energy method is used to construct the dynamic equation, and the nonlinear dynamic equation is linearized using the small parameter perturbation method. Eigen-solutions of the symplectic matrix are used to analyze the wave propagation problem in nonlinear periodic lattices. Nonlinearity in the mass-spring chain, arising from the nonlinear spring stiffness effect, has profound effects on the overall transmission of the chain. The wave propagation characteristics are altered due to nonlinearity, and related to the incident wave intensity, which is a genuine nonlinear effect not present in the corresponding linear model. Numerical results show how the increase of nonlinearity or incident wave amplitude leads to closing of transmitting gaps. Comparison with the normal recursive approach shows effectiveness and superiority of the symplectic method for the wave propagation problem in nonlinear periodic structures.     

Identification of the dynamic properties of nonlinear vicoelastic materials and the associated wave propagation problem

A method is developed for the identification of the dynamic properties of nonlinear viscoelastic materials using transient response information arising from impact tests. The solutions of the identification problem and that of the associated nonlinear wave propagation problem are shown to be coupled. They are accomplished via application of the method of lines, the Runge-Kutta-Pouzet integration scheme with automatic step size control and Powell's method of unconstrained optimization. Numerical experiments are performed to demonstrate the feasibility, accuracy and stability of the solution procedure established, and wave propagation experiments are conducted to investigate the applicability of the method to a real physical system. The results are of particular interest in the modeling of nonlinear viscoelastic materials and the identification of systems governed by nonlinear hyperbolic partial-integro-differential equations.

Quadratically Nonlinear Cylindrical Hyperelastic Waves: Derivation of Wave Equations for Plane-Strain State

A method is proposed for deriving nonlinear wave equations that describe the propagation and interaction of hyperelastic cylindrical waves. The method is based on a rigorous approach of nonlinear continuum mechanics. Nonlinearity is introduced by means of metric coefficients, Cauchy-Green strain tensor, and Murnaghan potential and corresponds to the quadratic nonlinearity of all basic relationships. For a configuration (state) dependent on the radial and angle coordinates and independent of the axial coordinate, quadratically nonlinear wave equations for stresses are derived and stress-strain relationships are established. Four ways of introducing physical and geometrical nonlinearities to the wave equations are analyzed. For one of the ways, the nonlinear wave equations are written explicitly__________Translated from Prikladnaya Mekhanika,Vol. 41, No. 5, pp. 40–51, May 2005.     

High-order evolution equation for nonlinear wave-packet propagation with surface tension accountingÉquation d'évolution d'ordre élevé de groupes d'ondes non linéaires en présence de tension superficielle

The nonlinear problem for propagation of wave-packets along the interface of two semi-infinite fluids is solved on the basis of multiple scale asymptotic expansions. Unlike all previous investigations dealing only with third-order approximations, here fourth-order approximation is developed. The corresponding solvability condition is obtained and the evolution equation in the case away from the cut-off wave number is derived. As a result, the nonlinear higher-order Schrödinger equation is obtained which contains the nonlinear part in a compact form. This equation is valid for a wide range of wave numbers. The stability diagram shows regions of stability and instability of capillary-gravity wave-packets. To cite this article: I. Selezov et al., C. R. Mecanique 331 (2003).     

Propagation of surface (seismic) waves: Ordinary differential equations with strongly nonlinear damping

Second-order ordinary differential equations (ODEs) with strongly nonlinear damping (cubic nonlinearities) govern surface wave motions that entail nonlinear surface seismic motions. They apply to dynamic crack propagation and nonlinear oscillation problems in physics and nonlinear mechanics. It is shown that the nonlinear surface seismic wave equation (Rayleigh equation) admits several functional transformations and it is possible to reduce it to an equivalent first-order Abel ODE of the second kind in normal form. Based on a recently developed methodology concerning the construction of exact analytic solutions for the type of Abel equations under consideration, exact solutions are obtained for the nonlinear seismic wave (NLSW) equation for initial conditions of the physical problem. The method employed is general and can be applied to a large class of relevant ODEs in mathematical physics and nonlinear mechanics.

A set of transport equations for the growth or decay of theamplitudes of shock waves along an arbitrary propagation directionin three-dimensional nonlinear elastic solids is derived using theLagrangian coordinates.The transport equations obtained showthat the time derivative of the amplitude of a shock wave alongany propagation ray depends on (i) an unknown quantity immediatelybehind the shock wave,(ii) the two principal curvatures of theshock surface,(iii) the gradient taken on the shock surface ofthe normal shock wave speed and (iv) the inhomogeneous term.whichis related to the motion ahead of the shock surface.vanisheswhen the motion ahead of the shock surface is uniform.Severalchoices of the propagation vector are given for which the tran-sport equations can be simplified.Some universal relations,which relate the time derivatives of various jump quantities toeach other but which do not depend on the constitutive equationsof the material,are also presented.     

Finite-element simulation of myocardial electrical excitation

Based on a single-domain model of myocardial conduction, isotropic and anisotropic finite element models of the myocardium are developed allowing excitation wave propagation to be studied. The Aliev-Panfilov phenomenological equations were used as the relations between the transmembrane current and the transmembrane potential. Interaction of an additional source of initial excitation with an excitation wave that passed and the spread of the excitation wave are studied using heart tomograms. A numerical solution is obtained using a splitting algorithm that allows the nonlinear boundary-value problem to be reduced to a sequence of simpler problems: ordinary differential equations and linear boundary-value problems in partial derivatives.     

Nonlinear thermoelasticity,vibration, and stress wave propagation analyses of thick FGM cylinders with temperature-dependent material properties

In the present paper, nonlinear thermoelasticity, vibration, and stress wave propagation analyses of thick-walled cylinders made of functionally graded materials with temperature-dependent properties are performed. In contrast to researches accomplished so far, a third-order Hermitian finite element formulation is employed to guarantee both radial displacement and normal stress continuities, improve the accuracy, and prevent virtual wave source formations at the mutual boundaries of the elements. Stress wave propagation, reflection, and interference under impulsive mechanical loads in thermal environments are also studied. In contrast to the common procedure, the cylinder is not divided into isotropic sub-cylinders. Therefore, artificial wave reflections from the hard interfaces are avoided. Time variations of the temperatures, displacements, and stresses due to the dynamic loads are determined by solving the resulted highly nonlinear governing equations using an updating iterative time integration scheme and over-relaxation and under-relaxation techniques. A comprehensive sensitivity analysis includes effects of the volume fraction indices, dimensions, and temperature-dependency of the material properties is performed. Results reveal the significant effect of the temperature-dependency of the material properties on the transient stress distribution and elastic wave propagation and reflection phenomena. Interesting phenomena are noticed; among them the oblique wave formations during the wave propagation. Since examples of the present field are rare in literature, the extracted results may serve as reference results for future comparisons.     

Nonlinear Electrohydrodynamic Stability of Two Superposed Streaming Finite Dielectric Fluids in Porous Medium with Interfacial Surface Charges

A weakly nonlinear stability analysis of wave propagation in two superposed dielectric fluids streaming through porous media in the presence of vertical electric field producing surface charges is investigated in three dimensions. The method of multiple scales is used to obtain a dispersion relation for the linear problem and a nonlinear Klein–Gordon equation with complex coefficients describing the behavior of the perturbed system at the critical point of the neutral curve. In the linear case, we found that the system is always unstable for all physical quantities (including the dimension l), even in the presence of electric fields and porous medium, in the nonlinear case, novel stability conditions are obtained, and the effects of various parameters on the stability of the system are discussed numerically in detail.     

A nonlinear analysis of surface acoustic waves in isotropic elastic solids

With the fast evolution of wireless and networking communication technology, applications of surface acoustic wave (SAW), or Rayleigh wave, resonators are proliferating with fast shrinking sizes and increasing frequencies. It is inevitable that the smaller resonators will be under a strong electric field with induced large deformation, which has to be described in wave propagation equations with the consideration of nonlinearity. In this study, the formal nonlinear equations of motion are constructed by introducing the nonlinear constitutive relation and strain components in a standard procedure, and the equations are simplified by the extended Galerkin method through the elimination of harmonics. The wave velocity of the nonlinear SAW is obtained from approximated nonlinear equations and boundary conditions through a rigorous solution procedure. It is shown that if the amplitude is small enough, the nonlinear results are consistent with the linear results, demonstrating an alternative procedure for nonlinear analysis of SAW devices working in nonlinear state.     

Propagation of acoustic waves and shock waves radiated by a sinusoidal pulsation of a sphere during a single period

A spherical sound wave is emitted by a sphere which executes a small sinusoidal pulsation of a single period at high frequency in an inviscid fluid. Nonlinear propagation of the waves is formulated as an initial boundary value problem and is analysed in detail. The governing equation is linear near the sphere, while it is a nonlinear hyperbolic equation in a far field. The nonlinearity has a significant effect there, leading to the formation of two shocks. The exact solution to match the near field solution can easily be obtained for the far field equation. The nonlinear distortion of waveform and the shock formation distance are evaluated from the representation of the solution with strained coordinates. The evolution and nonlinear attenuation of the two shock discontinuities are also examined by making use of the equal-areas rule. In its asymptotic form the entire profile is an N wave with a long tail.
