Scattering of elastic waves from spherical and cylindrical inclusion in a solid medium

Scattering of Longitudinal Elastic Waves From an Anisotropic Spherical Shell

A New Theorem Concerning Scattering of Electromagnetic Waves in Multilayered Metamaterial Spherical Structures

The proposed theorem in this paper is indicative of a kind of duality in the propagation of waves in the dual media of and in the spherical structures. Independent of wave frequency, the number of layers, their thickness, and the type of polarization, this theorem holds true in case of any change in any of these conditions. Theorem: Consider a plane wave incident on a multilayered spheric...

Interaction of Gravitational Waves with an Elastic Solid Medium

Elastic Waves Scattering from Corrugated Metal Interfaces

This is a study of elastic waves diffracted by corrugated metallic surfaces. The corrugations consist of triangular grooves with variable parameters. The results of the narrow band experiments show significant diffraction patterns depending on angle and frequency. In addition, a continuous schlieren system is used to visualize the diffracted orders. Measurements were also carried out using a br...

Circumferential creeping waves around a fluid-filled cylindrical cavity in an elastic medium

The dispersion behavior of circumferential creeping waves around a fluid-filled cylindrical cavity in an infinite elastic medium is analyzed by computational methods. Phase and group velocity as well as attenuation curves are constructed by numerically solving the dispersion equation. A comparison of the corresponding modes for elastic and rigid hosts is presented. The modes in both cases exhib...
