平面波在横向各向同性均匀介质中的传播

导出均匀各向异性介质当中具有横向各向同性性质的一类介质中平面波的严格解,给出了慢度曲面的三维分布图形,研究了属于这类介质的单向纤维增强复合材料中声波的传播规律。平面波的特征用慢度矢量、波矢量、偏振矢量和群速度等物理量来刻画.由于引入了描述介质各向异性特性的方向矢量,各物理量最终以与座标系无关的形式来表达,因而具有普遍的适用性。

Propagation of elastic plane waves in homogeneous and transversely isotropic media

Solutions to the equation of waves motion are derived for homogeneous and transversely isotropic media such as fiber-reinforced composites, and three dimensional slowness surfaces are shown as well. A brief discussion on the propagation of plane waves is given. Elastic plane waves are characterized by slowness vectors, wave vectors, polarization vectors and group velocity vectors, etc. The results obtained are presented in a coordinate-free form due to the introduction of the crystal axis' orientation vector which specifies the anisotropy of the media. Therefore, the results are the most general and convenient for further application.
