Love wave dispersion in pre-stressed homogeneous medium over a porous half-space with irregular boundary surfaces

The paper investigates the existence of Love wave propagation in an initially stressed homogeneous layer over a porous half-space with irregular boundary surfaces. The method of separation of variables has been adopted to get an analytical solution for the dispersion equation and thus dispersion equations have been obtained in several particular cases. Propagation of Love wave is influenced by initial stress parameters, corrugation parameter and porosity of half-space. Velocity of Love waves have been plotted in several figures to study the effect of various parameters and found that the velocity of wave decreases with increases of non-dimensional wave number. It has been observed that the phase velocity decreases with increase of initial stress parameters and porosity of half-space.     

Dispersion characteristics of wave propagation in layered piezoelectric structures: Exact and simplified models

This article presents a study of the dispersion characteristics of wave propagation in layered piezoelectric structures under plane strain and open-loop conditions. The exact dispersion relation is first determined based on an electro-elastodynamic analysis. The dispersion equation is complicated and can be solved only by numerical methods. Since the piezoelectric layer is very thin and can be modeled as an electro-elastic film, a simplified model of the piezoelectric layer reduces this complex problem to a non-trivial solution of a series of quadratic equations of wave numbers. The model is simple, yet captures the main phenomena of wave propagation. This model determines the dispersion curves of PZT4-Aluminum layered structures and identifies the two lowest modes of waves: the generalized longitudinal mode and the generalized Rayleigh mode. The model is validated by comparing with exact solutions, indicating that the results are accurate when the thickness of the layer is smaller or comparable to the typical wavelength. The effect of the piezoelectricity is examined, showing a significant influence on the generalized longitudinal wave but a very limited effect on the generalized Rayleigh wave. Typical examples are provided to illustrate the wave modes and the effects of layer thickness in the simplified model and the effects of the material combinations.

Prediction on dispersion in elastoplastic unsaturated granular media

This study focuses on the propagation of the plane wave in the elastoplastic unsaturated granular media, and the wave equations and dispersion equations are derived for the media under the framework of Cosserat theory. Due to symmetry, five different wave modes are considered and predicted for the elastoplastic unsaturated granular media based on the Cosserat theory, including two longitudinal waves, one rotational longitudinal wave and two coupled transverse–rotational transverse waves. The correspondence is discussed between these Cosserat wave modes and the classical wave modes. Based on the dispersion equations, the dispersion behaviors are obtained for the five Cosserat wave modes. The results indicated that the different stress-strain stages,including the elastic, hardening and softening stages, have obvious effect on the dispersion behaviors of the Cosserat wave modes.     

Self-consistent methods in the problem of axial elastic shear wave propagation through fiber composites

Summary Two self-consistent schemes (effective medium method and effective field method) are applied to the problem of monochromatic elastic shear wave propagation through matrix composite materials containing cylindrical unidirected fibers. Dispersion equations of the mean wave field in such composites are derived by both methods. In the long-wave and short-wave ranges, analytical solutions of these equations are obtained and compared with each other, while numerical solutions are constructed for a wide range of frequencies. In particular, velocities and attenuation factors of the mean wave fields obtained by the two methods are compared for various volume concentrations, elastic properties and densities of inclusions in a wide range of frequencies of the incident field. The main discrepancies in the predictions made by the two methods are indicated, analyzed and discussed.     

Characteristics of elastic waves in FGM spherical shells,an analytical solution

In this paper, we investigate the propagation characteristics of elastic guided waves in FGM spherical shells with exponentially graded material in the radial direction. A new separation of variables technique to displacements is proposed to convert the governing equations of the wave motion to the second-order ordinary differential equations with variable coefficients. By further a variables transform technique, these equations are transformed to the Whittaker equations so that analytic solutions can be obtained. For the spherical shell case, by satisfying the traction-free boundary conditions on both the inner and outer surfaces of the shell, we obtain the dispersion equations, which show that both the SH and Lamb-type wave modes are generated in the structure. The calculated dispersion curves in the functionally graded shell demonstrate a clear influence of the gradient coefficient as compared to those of the homogeneous shell, with the Lamb-type waves more sensitive to the gradient coefficient. The mode shapes and the distributions of stresses in the shells for various gradient coefficients are also presented to illustrate their dependence on the gradient coefficient.     

Gel Placement in Porous Media: Constant Injection Rate

In this paper we analyse advective transport of polymers, crosslinkers and gel, taking into account non-equilibrium gelation, gel adsorption and crosslinker precipitation. In absence of diffusion/dispersion the resulting model consists of hyperbolic transport-reaction equations. These equations are studied in several steps using mainly analytical techniques. For simple cases, we obtain explicit travelling wave solutions, whereas for more complicated cases we rely on analytical techniques to analyse the problem qualitatively. Finally, a numerical solution for the full system of equations is obtained. The results developed in this study can be used to validate numerical solutions obtained from commercial simulators.     

Propagation of longitudinal elastic waves in composites with a random set of spherical inclusions (effective field approach)

The work is devoted to the problem of plane monochromatic longitudinal wave propagation through a homogeneous elastic medium with a random set of spherical inclusions. The effective field method and quasicrystalline approximation are used for the calculation of the phase velocity and attenuation factor of the mean (coherent) wave field in the composite. The hypotheses of the method reduce the diffraction problem for many inclusions to a diffraction problem for one inclusion and, finally, allow for the derivation of the dispersion equation for the wave vector of the mean wave field in the composite. This dispersion equation serves for all frequencies of the incident field, properties and volume concentrations of inclusions. The long and short wave asymptotics of the solution of the dispersion equation are found in closed analytical forms. Numerical solutions of this equation are constructed in a wide region of frequencies of the incident field that covers long, middle, and short wave regions of propagating waves. The phase velocities and attenuation factors of the mean wave field are calculated for various elastic properties, density, and volume concentrations of the inclusions. Comparisons of the predictions of the method with some experimental data are presented; possible errors of the method are indicated and discussed.     

On the validity of planar, thick curved beam models derived with respect to centroidal and neutral axes

Most dynamic analyses of planar curved beams found in the literature are carried out based on a curved beam model which assumes that the neutral axis coincides with the centroidal axis of the curved beam. This assumption leads to governing equations of motion which are relatively simple with analysis results that have acceptable accuracy for shallow curved beams. However, when a curved beam is not shallow and/or its cross section is not doubly symmetric, the offset distance between the neutral and centroidal axes may be large enough to influence the in-plane dynamics of the curved beam even for small motion. In this paper, the validity of this underlying assumption for modeling a linear curved beam is examined. To this end, two sets of equations of motion governing the in-plane dynamics of a planar curved beam are derived, in a consistent manner for comparison, based on the linear strain-displacement relations and Hamilton’s principle. The first set of equations is derived from the displacement components measured with reference to the neutral axis of the curved beam while the second set is derived with respect to the centroidal axis of the cross section. The curved beam is considered extensional and the effects of rotary inertia and radial shear deformation are included. In addition to the curvature parameter that characterizes the wave motion for both curved beam models, an eccentricity parameter is introduced in the first model to account for the offset between the neutral and centroidal axes. The dynamic behavior predicted by each curved beam model is compared in terms of the dispersion relations, frequency spectra, cutoff frequencies, natural frequencies and modeshapes, and frequency responses. In order to ensure that the comparison is accurate, the wave propagation technique is applied to obtain exact wave solutions. It is shown that, when the curvature parameter is not small, the underlying assumption has a substantial impact on the accuracy of the linear dynamic analysis of a curved beam.     

Generalized Darboux transformation and localized waves in coupled Hirota equations

In this paper, we construct a generalized Darboux transformation to the coupled Hirota equations with high-order nonlinear effects like the third dispersion, self-steepening and inelastic Raman scattering terms. As application, an N$N$th-order localized wave solution on the plane backgrounds with the same spectral parameter is derived through the direct iterative rule. In particular, some semi-rational, multi-parametric localized wave solutions are obtained: (1) vector generalization of the first- and the second-order rogue wave solutions; (2) interactional solutions between a dark–bright soliton and a rogue wave, two dark–bright solitons and a second-order rogue wave; (3) interactional solutions between a breather and a rogue wave, two breathers and a second-order rogue wave. The results further reveal the striking dynamic structures of localized waves in complex coupled systems.     

SOLITARY WAVES IN FINITE DEFORMATION ELASTIC CIRCULAR ROD

A new nonlinear wave equation of a finite deformation elastic circular rod simultaneously introducing transverse inertia and shearing strain was derived by means of Hamilton principle. The nonlinear equation includes two nonlinear terms caused by finite deformation and double geometric dispersion effects caused by transverse inertia and transverse shearing strain. Nonlinear wave equation and corresponding truncated nonlinear wave equation were solved by the hyperbolic secant function finite expansion method. The solitary wave solutions of these nonlinear equations were obtained. The necessary condition of these solutions existence was given also.     

Exact Explicit Peakon and Periodic Cusp Wave Solutions for Several Nonlinear Wave Equations

Using the method of dynamical systems for six nonlinear wave equations, the exact explicit parametric representations of the solitary cusp wave solutions and the periodic cusp wave solutions are given. These parametric representations follow that when travelling systems corresponding to these nonlinear wave equations has a singular straight line, under some parameter conditions, nonanalytic travelling wave solutions must appear.

Existence and breaking property of real loop-solutions of two nonlinear wave equations

Dynamical analysis has revealed that, for some nonlinear wave equations, loop- and inverted loop-soliton solutions are actually visual artifacts. The so-called loopsoliton solution consists of three solutions, and is not a real solution. This paper answers the question as to whether or not nonlinear wave equations exist for which a ＂real＂ loopsolution exists, and if so, what are the precise parametric representations of these loop traveling wave solutions.     

Propagation of SH waves in an irregular monoclinic crustal layer

The present paper discusses the dispersion equation for SH waves in a monoclinic layer over a semi-infinite elastic medium with an irregularity. In the absence of the irregularity, the dispersion equation reduces to standard dispersion equation for SH waves in a monoclinic layer over an isotropic semi-infinite medium. The dispersion curves for different size of the irregularity are computed and compared for the half-space without any irregularity. It can be seen that the phase velocity is strongly influenced by the wave number and the depth of the irregularity.

Dispersive waves in microstructured solids

The wave motion in micromorphic microstructured solids is studied. The mathematical model is based on ideas of Mindlin and governing equations are derived by making use of the Euler–Lagrange formalism. The same result is obtained by means of the internal variables approach. Actually such a model describes internal fields in microstructured solids under external loading and the interaction of these fields results in various physical effects. The emphasis of the paper is on dispersion analysis and wave profiles generated by initial or boundary conditions in a one-dimensional case.
