In a recent paper (1), Paria has discussed the propagation through a solid of a certain type of magneto-thermo-elastic plane wave. The analysis is essentially a reconciliation of the equations governing three fields: the electromagnetic field, the thermal field and the elastic field, which interact one with another. The principal result which was obtained was the dispersion equation connecting the frequency and the wavelength of waves of this type.

The propagation of magneto-elastic plane waves is a topic which has recently aroused much interest. Thus Paria ((l)), for example, and the present author ((2)), have studied in some detail the interaction between the magneto-elastic field and the thermal field. Analyses published so far, however, have neglected the effects due to the passage of the wave upon the magnetic permeability of the medium. It is the object of the present paper to consider these effects and it will be shown that although the elastic strains induced cause but a small change in the numerical values of the permeability, nevertheless the effects upon wave propagation may be very considerable. The principal result is the demonstration that the effects considered are equivalent so far as the dispersion equation is concerned, to an anisotropic rescaling of the primary magnetic field, the direction of propagation of the wave being a preferred direction. For simplicity, thermal effects are not considered here.

The Magnetic Field

AbstractThe combined effects of uniform thermal and magnetic fields on the propagation of plane waves in a homogeneous, initially unstressed, electrically conducting elastic medium have been investigated.When the magnetic field is parallel to the direction of wave propagation, the compression wave is purely thermo-elastic and the shear wave is purely magneto-elastic in nature. For a transverse magnetic field, the shear waves remain elastic whereas the compression wave assumes magneto-thermo-elastic character due to the coupling of all the three fields—mechanical, magnetic and thermal. In the general case, the waves polarized in the plane of the direction of wave propagation and the magnetic field are not only coupled but are also influenced by the thermal field, once again exhibiting the coupling of the three fields. The shear wave polarized transverse to the plane retains its magneto-elastic character.Notation.Hi = primary magnetic field components,ht = induced magnetic field components,To = initial thermal field,θ = induced thermal field,C = compression wave velocity.S = shear wave velocity,ui = displacement components,cv = specific heat at constant volume,k = thermal conductivity,η = magnetic diffusivity,μe = magnetic permeability,λ, μ = Lamé's constants,β = ratio of coefficient of volume expansion to isothermal compressibility.

AbstractThe propagation of plane waves in a viscoelastic body representing a parallel union of the Kelvin and Maxwell bodies placed in a magneto-thermal field is investigated. It is shown that the longitudinal component of the wave is in general coupled with a transverse component and the wave travels in two families. In particular if the primary magnetic field is either parallel or perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation, the three components of the wave travel unlinked, with either the longitudinal component or the transverse components unaffected by the presence of the electromagnetic field. If the electrical conductivity of the solid is infinite the effect of the primary magnetic field is to increase the values of the material constants. The effect of wave propagation on magnetic permeability is equivalent to an anisotropic rescaling of the primary magnetic field. Some of the results obtained in the earlier works are obtained as particular cases of the more general results derived here.

This chapter examines solutions to the Maxwell equations in a vacuum: monochromatic plane waves and their polarizations, plane waves, and the motion of a charge in the field of a wave (which is the principle upon which particle detection is based). A plane wave is a solution of the vacuum Maxwell equations which depends on only one of the Cartesian spatial coordinates. The monochromatic plane waves form a basis (in the sense of distributions, because they are not square-integrable) in which any solution of the vacuum Maxwell equations can be expanded. The chapter concludes by giving the conditions for the geometrical optics limit. It also establishes the connection between electromagnetic waves and the kinematic description of light discussed in Book 1.

AbstractThe scattered fields of plane waves in a solid from a cylinder or sphere are critical in determining its acoustic characteristics as well as in engineering applications. This paper investigates the scattered field distributions of different incident waves created by elastic cylinders embedded in an elastic isotropic medium. Scattered waves, including longitudinal and transverse waves both inside and outside the cylinder, are described with specific modalities under an incident plane wave. A model with a scatterer embedded in a structural steel matrix and filled with aluminum is developed for comparison with the theoretical solution. The frequency of the plane wave ranged from 235 kHz to 2348 kHz, which corresponds to scaling factors from 0.5 to 5. Scattered field distributions in matrix materials blocked by an elastic cylindrical solid have been obtained by simulation or calculated using existing parameters. The simulation results are in good agreement with the theoretical solution, which supports the correctness of the simulation analysis. Furthermore, ultrasonic phased arrays are used to study scattered fields by changing the characteristics of the incident wave. On this foundation, a partial preliminary study of the scattered field distribution of double cylinders in a solid has been carried out, and the scattered field distribution at a given distance has been found to exhibit particular behaviors at different moments. Further studies on directivities and scattered fields are expected to improve the quantification of scattered images in isotropic solid materials by the phased array technique.

In this work, the propagation behaviour of a surface wave in a micropolar elastic half-space with surface strain and kinetic energies localized at the surface and the propagation behaviour of an interfacial anti-plane wave between two micropolar elastic half-spaces with interfacial strain and kinetic energies localized at the interface have been studied. The Gurtin–Murdoch model has been adopted for surface and interfacial elasticity. Dispersion equations for both models have been obtained in algebraic form for two types of anti-plane wave, i.e. a Love-type wave and a new type of surface wave (due to micropolarity). The angular frequency and phase velocity of anti-plane waves have been analysed through a numerical study within cut-off frequencies. The obtained results may find suitable applications in thin film technology, non-destructive analysis or biomechanics, where the models discussed here may serve as theoretical frameworks for similar types of phenomena.

The experimental study of wave attenuation in concrete has been achieved in the case of the propagation of plane waves in concrete rods. Different mortars and concretes have been investigated. A transmitter transducer coupled to one of the ends of the concrete rod generates the propagation of a plane wave in the rod. The receiver transducer, similar to the previous one, is coupled to the other end of the rod. The experimental results lead to an analytical expression for wave attenuation as function of the concrete composition, the propagation distance, and the wave frequency.

Dual Integral Equations

In the last few years Copson, Schwinger and others have obtained exact solutions of a number of diffraction problems by expressing these problems in terms of an integral equation which can be solved by the method of Wiener and Hopf. A simpler approach is given, based on a representation of the scattered field as an angular spectrum of plane waves, such a representation leading directly to a pair of ‘dual’ integral equations, which replaces the single integral equation of Schwinger’s method. The unknown function in each of these dual integral equations is that defining the angular spectrum, and when this function is known the scattered field is presented in the form of a definite integral. As far as the ‘radiation’ field is concerned, this integral is of the type which may be approximately evaluated by the method of steepest descents, though it is necessary to generalize the usual procedure in certain circumstances. The method is appropriate to two-dimensional problems in which a plane wave (of arbitrary polarization) is incident on plane, perfectly conducting structures, and for certain configurations the dual integral equations can be solved by the application of Cauchy’s residue theorem. The technique was originally developed in connexion with the theory of radio propagation over a non-homogeneous earth, but this aspect is not discussed. The three problems considered are those for which the diffracting plates, situated in free space, are, respectively, a half-plane, two parallel half-planes and an infinite set of parallel half-planes; the second of these is illustrated by a numerical example. Several points of general interest in diffraction theory are discussed, including the question of the nature of the singularity at a sharp edge, and it is shown that the solution for an arbitrary (three-dimensional) incident field can be derived from the corresponding solution for a two-dimensional incident plane wave.

Abstract The modified boundary integral equation method (MIM) is considered a rigorous theoretical application for the diffraction of cylindrical waves by arbitrary profiled plane gratings, as well as for the diffraction of plane/non-planar waves by concave/convex gratings. This study investigates two-dimensional (2D) diffraction problems of the filiform source electromagnetic field scattered by a plane lamellar grating and of plane waves scattered by a similar cylindrical-shaped grating. Unlike the problem of plane wave diffraction by a plane grating, the field of a localised source does not satisfy the quasi-periodicity requirement. Fourier transform is used to reduce the solution of the problem of localised source diffraction by the grating in the whole region to the solution of the problem of diffraction inside one Floquet channel. By considering the periodicity of the geometry structure, the problem of Floquet terms for the image can be formulated so that it enables the application of the MIM developed for plane wave diffraction problems. Accounting of the local structure of an incident field enables both the prediction of the corresponding efficiencies and the specification of the bounds within which the approximation of the incident field with plane waves is correct. For 2D diffraction problems of the high-conductive plane grating irradiated by cylindrical waves and the cylindrical high-conductive grating irradiated by plane waves, decompositions in sets of plane waves/sections are investigated. The application of such decomposition, including the dependence on the number of plane waves/sections and radii of the grating and wave front shape, was demonstrated for lamellar, sinusoidal and saw-tooth grating examples in the 0th & –1st orders as well as in the transverse electric and transverse magnetic polarisations. The primary effects of plane wave/section partitions of non-planar wave fronts and curved grating shapes on the exact solutions for 2D and three-dimensional (conical) diffraction problems are discussed.
