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...

The aim of this paper is to investigate the Stoneley waves in a non-homogeneous orthotropic granular medium under the influence of a gravity field. The frequency equation obtained, in the form of a sixth-order determinantal expression, is in agreement with the corresponding result when both media are elastic. The frequency equation when the gravity field is neglected has been deduced as a parti...

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...

An interesting feature that appears in the thermoelastic interaction an orthotropic material containing cylindrical cavities is addressed this study. For purpose, Finite Element Method applied to analyze a generalized thermoelasticity theory with relaxation time. development of model, thermal conductivity dependent on temperature medium was considered. The boundary condition for internal surfac...

This study presents exact bending solution of fully clamped orthotropic rectangular plates subjected to arbitrary loads resting on elastic foundations, based on the finite integral transform method. In this method, it is not necessary to determine the deformation function because the basic governing equations of the classical plate theory for orthotropic plates have been used‌. A detailed param...

In the present work, the free vibration behavior of rectangular graphene sheet under shear in-plane load is studied. Nonlocal elasticity theory has been implemented to study the vibration analysis of orthotropic single-layered graphene sheets (SLGSs) subjected to shear in-plane load. The SLGSs is embedded on a viscoelastic medium which is simulated as a Visco-Pasternak foundation. Using the pri...

In this study, forced-vibration analysis of a coupled system of single layered graphene sheets (SLGSs) subjected to the moving nano-particle is carried out based on nonlocal elasticity theory of orthotropic plate. Two SLGSs are coupled with elastic medium which is simulated by Pasternak and Visco-Pasternak models. Using Hamilton’s principle, governing differential equations of motion are derive...
