The present investigation deals with the propagation of waves in a micropolar transversely isotropic layer. Secular equations for symmetric and skew-symmetric modes of wave propagation in completely separate terms are derived. The amplitudes of displacements and microrotation were also obtained. Finally, the numerical solution was carried out for aluminium epoxy material and the dispersion curv...

A Mathematical model has been considered to study the reflection and refraction phenomenon of plane wave at the interface of an isotropic liquid medium and a triclinic (anisotropic) half-space. The incident plane qP wave generates three types of reflected waves namely quasi-P (qP), quasi-SV (qSV) and quasi-SH (qSH) waves in the tric...

The properties of Rayleigh-type surface wave in a linear, homogeneous and transversely isotropic nonlocal micropolar piezoelectric solid half-space are explored. Dispersion relations for derived both charge free electrically shorted cases. Using an algorithm iteration method MATLAB software, the speed Rayleigh is computed relevant material constants. effects nonlocality, angular frequency, micr...

The present investigation is to study the surface wave propagation at imperfect boundary between an isotropic thermoelastic without energy dissipation half-space and an isotropic elastic layer of finite thickness. The penetration depth of longitudinal, transverse, and thermal waves has been obtained. The secular equation for surface waves in compact form is derived after developing the mathemat...

an analytical solution is presented for displacements and stresses of a three dimensional linear hyperelastic transversely isotropic layer bonded on the top of a transversely isotropic half-space subjected to an arbitrary, time-harmonic surface tangential force. the equations of equilibrium in terms of displacements are uncoupled by using a set of two potential functions introduced by eskandari...
