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...

The present paper concerns with the effect of initial stress on the propagation of plane waves in a rotating transversely isotropic medium in the context of thermoelasticity theory of GN theory of type-II and III. After solving the governing equations, three waves propagating in the medium are obtained. The fastest among them is a quasi-longitudinal wave. The slowest of them is a thermal wave. ...

The response of structures bonded to the surface of a transversely isotropic half-space (TIHS) under the effect of time-harmonic forces is investigated using a coupled FE-BE scheme. To achieve this end, a Finite Element program has been developed for frequency domain analysis of 3D structures, as the first step. The half-space underlying the structure is taken into consideration using a Boundar...

Based upon the fundamental solution to a single straight dislocation segment, a complete set of exact closed-form solutions is presented in a unified manner for elastic displacements and strains due to general polygonal dislocations in a transversely isotropic half-space. These solutions are systematically composed of two parts: one representing the solution in an infinite transversely isotropi...

The present article deals with the study of propagation of plane waves in isotropic generalized thermoelastic diffusion with voids under initial stress. It is found that, for two dimensional model of isotropic generalized thermoelastic diffusion with voids under initial stress, there exists four coupled waves namely, P wave, Mass Diffusion (MD) wave, thermal (T) wave and Volume Fraction (VF) wa...
