Cubically Nonlinear Waves in a Piezoelastic Material

The paper proposes a new deformation model of piezomaterials that includes linear, quadratic, and cubic, and piezoeffect mechanisms. A nonlinear system of equations describing the propagation of plane waves is derived. Two new problems are solved analytically: generation of the third harmonic of an SH-wave and generation and interaction of new SH- and SV-waves after SH- and SV-waves are excited. All data needed for computer modeling are determined. The results of computer modeling are discussed
