Abstract: A general solution to harmonic excitation of beam-shaped specimens made from porous, fluid-saturated, transversely isotropic, and viscoelastic materials is developed and presented. The solution draws from Biot's theory of ...

Abstract: This paper presents the viscoelastic analytical solution for stress and displacement due to prescribed time-varying changes in the pore fluid pressure of a disk-shaped inclusion embedded within a semi-infinite, viscoelastic ...
