Abstract. The propagation behaviour of Love wave in an initially stressed functionally graded magnetic-electric-elastic half-space carrying a homogeneous layer is investigated. The material parameters in the substrate are assumed to vary exponentially along the thickness direction only. The velocity equations of Love wave are derived on the electrically or magnetically open circuit and short ci...

Electroand magneto-optical phenomena play key roles in photonic technology enabling light modulators, optical data storage, sensors and numerous spectroscopic techniques. Optical effects, linear and quadratic in external electric and magnetic field are widely known and comprehensively studied. However, optical phenomena that depend on the simultaneous application of external electric and magnet...

Two-phase periodic thermo-magneto-electro-elastic composites are considered. The composite materials consisting of identical parallel cylindrical fibers periodically distributed in a matrix. Both constituents are transversely isotropic and the unit-cell has rhomboidal shape. Based on the asymptotic homogenization method, exact relations involving the in-plane effective coefficients are derived ...
