Abstract:
The assumption of quasi-static electric field in the problem of wave reflection in piezoelectric half-plane results in missing an independent electric wave mode at the piezoelectric boundary, which leads to oversimplified solutions of reflected waves in a strong piezoelectric medium if only elastic bulk wave boundary conditions are considered. The paper presents a novel solution to address the issue by using the inhomogeneous wave theory and introducing a virtual reflection wave mode in addition to the elastic bulk wave modes. The virtual wave is assumed to satisfy the Snell's law as well as t

Abstract A study of nonlinear waves in liquid-gas mixtures with the consideration of internal effects is an important problem of both the fundamental and the applied fluid mechanics.

We consider a potential flow model of axisymmetric waves travelling on a ferrofluid jet. The ferrofluid coats a copper wire, through which an electric current is run.

This model is of interest because the stabilising mechanism allows for axisymmetric magnetohydrodynamical solitary waves.

Abstract:
This is a review article on the mechanics of small-amplitude motions superposed on finite biasing or initial fields in an electroelastic body. It begins with a summary of the nonlinear theory of electroelasticity, which is the theoretical foundation for the theory of small fields superposed on a bias. This theory, obtained by different approaches, and the development of structural theories for electroelastic beams, plates, and shells under biasing fields are discussed. Applications of these theories for small fields superposed on biasing fields in the buckling of thin electroelastic structures

Abstract:
A novel metrics termed the ‘wave electromechanical coupling factor’ (WEMCF) is proposed in this paper, to quantify the coupling strength between the mechanical and electric fields during the passage of a wave in piezoelectric composites. Two definitions of WEMCF are proposed, leading to a frequency formula and two energy formulas for the calculation of such a factor. The frequency formula is naturally consistent with the conventional modal electromechanical coupling factor (MEMCF) but the implementation is difficult. The energy formulas do not need the complicated wave matching required in the

A new explicit, two-dimensional plane strain, time domain spectral finite element is developed to enhance the simulation of guided waves generated by active piezoelectric sensors in laminated composite strips. A new multi-field layerwise theory is formulated for composite laminates with piezoelectric actuators and sensors which captures straight-crested symmetric and anti-symmetric Lamb waves. Third-order Hermite polynomial splines are employed for the approximation of displacements and electric potential through the thickness, and the piezoelectric actuators and sensors are physically modeled

Renewable and sustainable energies exhibit promising performance while serving as the power supply of a wireless sensor especially located in marine waters. Various microgenerators have been developed to harvest wave energy. However, the conversion ability from a dynamic oscillating source of wave is crucial to enhance their effectiveness in practical applications. In this paper, a new piezoelectric converter system is proposed to harvest the kinetic energy from ocean waves.

Abstract:
The radiative properties of a particulate medium are strongly influenced by the particle concentration and wavelength of the incident radiation. Independent scattering prevails at very low particle concentration, such that the spacing between the particles is much larger than the particle size and incident wavelength. As the particle spacing decreases, near-field multiple scattering and far-field interference of the scattered waves become increasingly pronounced. These dependent scattering effects cause the extinction efficiency and the phase velocity of electromagnetic waves, which are relate

In nematic liquid crystals, the Freedericksz transition induced by a rotating tilted electric field provides a simple example of such a mechanical excitable system.

An incident wave giving rise to moments symmetric about the crack plane is applied. It is assumed that the plate has the electric and magnetic permeabilities of the free space. By the use of Fourier transforms we reduce the problem to solving a pair of dual integral equations. The solution of the dual integral equations is then expressed in terms of a Fredholm integral eq

Vibrations are often represented as a sum of standing waves in space, i.e. normal modes of vibration. While this can be mathematically accurate, the representation as travelling waves can be compact and more appropriate from a physical point of view, in particular when the energy flux along the structure is meaningful. The quantification of travelling waves assists in computing the energy being transferred and propagated along a structure. It can provide local as well as global information about the structure through which the mechanical energy flows. Presented in this paper is a new method to
