Abstract: This paper derives the exact frequency equation for the toroidal mode of vibrations for a spherically isotropic elastic sphere. The vibrations of spherically isotropic solids are solved by ...

Abstract: This paper examines antisymmetric bifurcations of geometric diffuse modes, including buckling and surface rumpling modes, for a compressible pressure-sensitive circular cylinder of finite length ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the exact frequency equations for all the possible natural vibrations in a transversely isotropic cylinder of finite length. Two wave potentials are used to uncouple the ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the tensile stress distribution within a solid circular cylinder of diameter

Abstract: This paper derives an approximate expression for the true Young's modulus of a solid circular cylinder under compression between two end blocks with friction, provided that the Poisson's ratio is known. The conventional ...
