A numerical treatment of underwater wave propagation with arbitrary boundaries and boundary conditions

Bending Analysis of Laminated Composite Plates with Arbitrary Boundary Conditions

It is well known that for laminated composite plates a Levy-type solution exists only for cross-ply and antisymmetric angle-ply laminates. Numerous investigators have used the Levy method to solve the governing equations of various equivalent single-layer plate theories. It is the intension of the present study to introduce a method for analytical solutions of laminated composite plates with ar...

Love Wave Propagation in a Fiber-reinforced Layer with Corrugated Boundaries Overlying Heterogeneous Half-space

Love-type wave generation in a fiber-reinforced medium placed over an inhomogeneous orthotropic half-space is analysed. The upper and lower boundary surfaces of the fiber reinforced medium are periodically corrugated. Inhomogeneity of half-space is caused by variable density and variable shear modules. Displacement components for layer and half-space are derived by applying separable variable t...

Absorbing boundary conditions for electromagnetic wave propagation

In this paper, the theoretical perfectly absorbing boundary condition on the boundary of a half{space domain is developed for the Maxwell system by considering the system in whole instead of considering each component of the electromagnetic elds individually. This boundary condition allows any wave motion generated within the domain to pass through the boundary of the domain without generating ...
