Abstract: The existing theory of propagation of waves of finite amplitude is applied to rubberlike materials using a rigorous finite deformation theory of elasticity. Mooney-Rivlin and Neo-Hookean bodies ...

Abstract: Recent years have seen a revival of interest in the propagation of waves in anisotropic materials such as crystals, earth crust, reinforced plastics, and others. This paper investigates a ...

Abstract: A system of two ordinary coupled differential equations with periodic coefficients of the Mathieu type for two temporal perturbation parameters is derived. A closed-form solution of the system ...

Abstract: After a brief derivation of the formula for the nonlocal moduli, Fourier transforms of the stress components in their nonlocal aspect are established. Satisfaction of the traction-free boundary ...

Abstract: After a brief review of the main concepts of the nonlocal theory of elasticity, the equations of the nonlocal elastic moduli are derived, and the constitutive equations of the nonlocal medium ...

Abstract: Propagation of longitudinal waves in isotropic homogeneous elastic plates is studied in the context of the linear theory of nonlocal continuum mechanics. To determine the nonlocal moduli, the ...

Abstract: Two-phase poroelastic material is taken as a model of the living bone in the sense that the osseous tissue is treated as a linear isotropic perfectly elastic solid, and the fluid substances ...
