    Author : Juan Pablo Parra Martinez; Peter Göransson; Olivier Dazel; Jacques Cuenca; Wennhage Wennhage; Camille Perrot; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; poroelastic media; anisotropy; plane waves; multilayered systems; dynamics; acoustics; optimisation; matériaux poro-visco-élastique; anisotropie; ondes planes; panneaux multicouches; dynamique; acoustique; optimisation; Poroelastiska material; anisotropi; planvågor; flerskiktssystem; dynamik; akustik; optimering; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract : The mechanical and acoustic anisotropy of media is a governing factor in the behaviour of multilayered systems including such media. The understanding of the mechanisms conditioning the dynamic behaviour of multilayered systems is of paramount importance. READ MORE

  4. 2. Elastic Wave Propagation in Anisotropic Media. Application to Ultrasonic NDT

    Author : A. Jonas Niklasson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; layered media; cylinders; cracks; integral equations; scattering; nondestructive testing; elastic waves; ultrasonics; transducers; anisotropy;

    Abstract : The subject of this thesis is elastic wave propagation in anisotropic materials with application to ultrasonic nondestructive testing (NDT). The first part of the thesis is concerned with modeling of ultrasonic transducers and wave propagation in anisotropic materials in general. First, a scalar 2-D case is considered. READ MORE
