On Rayleigh waves in incompressible orthotropic elastic solids.

چکیده
In this paper the secular equation for the Rayleigh wave speed in an incompressible orthotropic elastic solid is obtained in a form that does not admit spurious solutions. It is then shown that inequalities on the material constants that ensure positive definiteness of the strain-energy function guarantee existence and uniqueness of the Rayleigh wave speed. Finally, an explicit formula for the Rayleigh wave speed is obtained.

متن کاملInfluence of gravity, compression and magnetic field on the propagation of rayleigh waves in non-homogeneous orthotropic elastic media
The influence of the gravity and magnetic field on the propagation of Rayleigh wave in a prestressed inhomogeneous, orthotropic elastic solid medium has been discussed. The method of separation of variable has been used to find the frequency equations for the surface waves. The obtained dispersion equations are in agreement with the classical results when gravity, magnetic field, non-homogeneit...
