  • propagation of Rayleigh Waves in a rotating orthotropic material elastic half space under initial stress and gravity
    Journal of Mechanical Science and Technology, 2012
    Co-Authors: A M Abdalla, S M Abodahab, T A Althamali
    Abstract:

    This paper aims to investigate the influence of rotation, initial stress and gravity field on the propagation of Rayleigh Waves in a homogeneous orthotropic elastic medium. The government equations and Lame’s potentials are used to obtain the frequency equation which determines the velocity of Rayleigh Waves, including rotation, initial stress and gravity field, in a homogeneous, orthotropic elastic medium has been investigated. The numerical results analyzing the frequency equation are discussed and presented graphically. It is important to note that the Rayleigh wave velocity in an orthotropic elastic medium increases a considerable amount in comparison to the Rayleigh wave velocity in an isotropic material. The results indicate that the effects of rotation, initial stress and gravity field on Rayleigh wave velocity are very pronounced.

  • propagation of Rayleigh Waves in generalized magneto thermoelastic orthotropic material under initial stress and gravity field
    Applied Mathematical Modelling, 2011
    Co-Authors: A M Abdalla, S M Abodahab, H A H Hammad
    Abstract:

    Abstract In this paper the influence of the gravity field, relaxation times and initial stress on propagation of Rayleigh Waves in an orthotropic magneto-thermoelastic solid medium has been investigated. The solution of the more general equations are obtained for thermoelastic coupling by Helmoltz’s theorem. The frequency equation which determines Rayleigh wave velocity have been obtained. Many special cases are investigated from the present problem. Numerical results analyzing the frequency equation are obtained and presented graphically. Relevant results of previous investigations are deduced as special cases from these results. The results indicate that the effect of initial stress, magnetic field and gravity field are very pronounced.

  • on generalized magneto thermoelastic Rayleigh Waves in a granular medium under the influence of a gravity field and initial stress
    Journal of Vibration and Control, 2011
    Co-Authors: A M Abdalla, S M Abodahab, H A H Hammad, S R Mahmoud
    Abstract:

    In this paper, the influence of magnetic field, gravity field and initial stress on Rayleigh Waves propagation in a granular medium under incremental thermal stresses and relaxation times is studied. The frequency equation of Rayleigh Waves is obtained in the form of a determinant containing a term involving the coefficient of friction of a granular medium. Some special cases are obtained from this study. Analytically, from the results obtained, one may illustrate that the effect of relaxation times, gravity field, initial stress and magnetic field on Rayleigh wave velocity are very pronounced. It is found that the frequency equation of Rayleigh Waves changes with respect to this friction. When the medium is an orthotropic and the magnetic field and friction coefficient vanish, the derived frequency equation reduces to that obtained by Abd-Alla and Ahmed. Relevant results from previous investigations are deduced as special cases of this study.

  • influences of rotation magnetic field initial stress and gravity on Rayleigh Waves in a homogeneous orthotropic elastic half space

    Co-Authors: A M Abdalla, S R Mahmoud, S M Abodahab
    Abstract:

    The aim of this paper is to investigate the influences of rotation, magnetic field, initial stress, and gravity field on Rayleigh Waves in a homogeneous orthotropic elastic medium. The government equations is solved by Lame’s potential and obtained the frequency equation which determines the velocity of Rayleigh Waves, including rotation, initial stress, gravity field, and magnetic field, in a homogeneous orthotropic elastic medium has been investigated. Numerical results analyzing the frequency equation are discussed and presented graphically. The results indicate that the effect of rotation, initial stress, magnetic field, and gravity field on Rayleigh wave velocity are very pronounced. Comparison are made with the results in the absence of rotation, initial stress, magnetic field and gravity field.

  • Rayleigh Waves in a magnetoelastic half space of orthotropic material under influence of initial stress and gravity field
    Applied Mathematics and Computation, 2004
    Co-Authors: A M Abdalla, H A H Hammad, S M Abodahab
    Abstract:

    In this paper, the frequency equation which determines the velocity of Rayleigh Waves, including initial stress, gravity field and magnetic field, in a homogeneous orthotropic elastic medium has been obtained. The theory of generalized surface Waves has firstly been developed and then it has been employed to investigate particular cases of Waves, viz. Rayleigh Waves under the influence of gravity field, initial stress and magnetic field. The frequency equation obtained is in agreement with the corresponding result obtained by Datta [Rev. Roumaine Sci. Tech. Ser. Mec. Appl. 31 (1986) 369], when the initial stress and magnetic field are neglected. Moreover, when the magnetic field is neglected, our result is in agreement with the corresponding result of Abd-Alla [Appl. Math. Comput. 99 (1999) 61]. Numerical results analyzing the frequency equation are discussed and presented graphically. The results indicate that the effect of orthotropy on such Waves is small and can be neglected, while the effect of initial stress, magnetic field and gravity field are very pronounced.

  • Influence of rotation and generalized magneto-thermoelastic on Rayleigh Waves in a granular medium under effect of initial stress and gravity field
    Meccanica, 2012
    Co-Authors: S R Mahmoud
    Abstract:

    Influence of rotation, relaxation times, magnetic field, initial stress and gravity field on attenuation coefficient (Imaginary part of frequency equation root) and Rayleigh Waves velocity (the real part of frequency equation root) in an elastic half-space of granular medium is studied. The analytical solution is obtained by using Lame’s potential techniques. The numerical calculations are carried out for the frequency equation of Rayleigh Waves velocity. The results are displayed graphically. Some results of previous investigations are deduced as special cases from this study.
