Torsional Waves in an Infinite Elastic Solid Containing a Spheroidal Cavity
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A low-frequency analysis is presented here for the axisymmetric problem of diffraction of torsional waves by an oblate spheroidal cavity in an isotropic homogeneous elastic medium. The method ...
Propagation of SH-Waves Through a Fiber-Reinforced Composite-Elliptic Cylindrical Fibers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Propagation of SH-waves through a fiber-reinforced composite has been considered. Fibers are taken to be elliptic in cross section and are assumed to be randomly distributed. It has been shown ...
A Self-Consistent Approach to Multiple Scattering by Elastic Ellipsoidal Inclusions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper deals with the scattering of plane longitudinal and shear waves by a distribution of elastic ellipsoidal inclusions. The scattered field is determined correct to O(ε3 ) where ε is ...
Diffraction of SH-Waves by an Edge Crack
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Diffraction of an antiplane shear (SH-) wave by an edge crack in a semi-infinite elastic medium is studied here. Asymptotic expansions for the scattered field both near and far from the crack ...
Rayleigh and Love Waves in Cladded Anistropic Medium
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Guided waves in coated anisotropic medium are of interest in electronics. Also, in recent years, cladded fiber-reinforced composites are being developed for use as aerospace structures. This paper ...
Earthquake Source Modeling, Ground Motion, and Structural Response, Vol. 80 (AMD-Vol. 60)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Instability of an Elastic Strip Hanging in an Airstream
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The stability of a long, thin elastic strip hanging vertically in a downward flowing airstream was considered. Experimentally it was observed that the strip remained essentially motionless or ...
Transient Ultrasonic Waves in Multilayered Superconducting Plates
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Transient response of multilayered superconducting tapes has been studied in this paper. These tapes are usually composed of layers of a superconducting material (like YBa2Cu3O7−δ, or YBCO, for ...
Normal Vibrations of a Rectangular Plate With Attached Masses
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Elastodynamic Scattering From Inclusions Surrounded by Thin Interface Layers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The scattering of elastic waves by elastic inclusions surrounded by interface layers is a problem of interest for nondestructive evaluation of interfaces in composites. In the present paper the ...
