Seismic Rayleigh waves on an exponentially graded, orthotropic half-space
(The Royal Society, 2007)
Efforts at modelling the propagation of seismic waves in half-spaces with continuously varying properties have mostly been focused on shear-horizontal waves. Here, a sagittally polarized (Rayleigh type) wave travels along ...
Onde de Love Piézoacoustique
(2006-04-24)
Une sélection de résultats analytiques et numériques concernant la propagation d'ondes planes harmoniques guidées dans un bicouche piézoélectrique est présentée.
L'étude effectuée concerne les modes transverses horizontaux ...
Wireless communicative stent for follow-up of abdominal aortic aneurysm,
(IEEE, 2006)
An abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a dilatation of the aorta at the abdominal level, which rupture is a life threatening complication. Recent treatment of AAA consists in endovascular treatment with covered stent grafts. ...
ENDOCOM: Abdominal aortic aneurysm test bench for in vitro simulation
(IEEE, 2007)
An abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a dilatation of the aorta at the abdominal level, whose rupture is a life threatening complication. Recent treatment procedures of AAA consists in endovascular treatment with covered ...
Surface stability of nonlinear magnetoelastic solids
(Wiley, 2007-12)
The present paper proposes to identify surface stability when a magnetoelastic half-space is subjected to a pure homogeneous pre-deformation and to a magnetic field normal to its (plane) boundary. Clearly, the aim is to ...
Finite amplitude inhomogeneous waves in Mooney-Rivlin viscoelastic solids
(Elsevier, 2004-09)
New exact solutions are exhibited within the framework of finite viscoelasticity. More precisely, the solutions correspond to finite-amplitude, transverse, linearly polarized, inhomogeneous motions superposed upon a finite ...
Rayleigh waves in anisotropic crystals rotating about the normal to a symmetry plane
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2004)
The propagation of surface acoustic waves in a rotating anisotropic crystal is studied. The crystal is monoclinic and cut along a plane containing the normal to the symmetry plane; this normal is also the axis of rotation. ...
Rayleigh waves and surface stability for Bell materials in compression; comparison with rubber
(Oxford University Press, 2003)
The stability of a Bell-constrained half-space in compression is studied. To this end, the propagation of Rayleigh waves on the surface of the material when it is maintained in a static state of triaxial prestrain is ...
Elastic interface acoustic waves in twinned crystals
(Elsevier, 2003)
A new type of interface acoustic waves (IAW) is presented, for single-crystal orthotropic twins bonded symmetrically along a plane containing only one common crystallographic axis. The effective boundary conditions show ...
Bleustein-Gulyaev waves in some functionally graded materials
(Elsevier, 2006-02-28)
Functionally Graded Materials are inhomogeneous elastic bodies whose properties vary continuously with space. Hence consider a half-space (x2>0) occupied by a special Functionally Graded Material made of an hexagonal (6 ...
