Abstract
The main aim of this paper is to derive formulas for the slowness of Stoneley waves traveling along the sliding interface of two isotropic elastic half-spaces. These formulas have been obtained by employing the complex function method. From the derivation of them, it is shown that if a Stoneley wave exists, it is unique. Based on the obtained formulas, it is proved that a Stoneley wave is always possible for two isotropic elastic half-spaces with the same bulk wave velocities. This result leads to the fact that a Stoneley wave is always possible for two elastic half-spaces satisfying the Wiechert condition, a condition that plays an important role in acoustic analyses. The obtained formulas are of theoretical interest and they will be useful in practical applications, especially in nondestructive evaluations.
期刊介绍:
Archives of Mechanics provides a forum for original research on mechanics of solids, fluids and discrete systems, including the development of mathematical methods for solving mechanical problems. The journal encompasses all aspects of the field, with the emphasis placed on:
-mechanics of materials: elasticity, plasticity, time-dependent phenomena, phase transformation, damage, fracture; physical and experimental foundations, micromechanics, thermodynamics, instabilities;
-methods and problems in continuum mechanics: general theory and novel applications, thermomechanics, structural analysis, porous media, contact problems;
-dynamics of material systems;
-fluid flows and interactions with solids.
Papers published in the Archives should contain original contributions dealing with theoretical, experimental, or numerical aspects of mechanical problems listed above.
The journal publishes also current announcements and information about important scientific events of possible interest to its readers, like conferences, congresses, symposia, work-shops, courses, etc.
Occasionally, special issues of the journal may be devoted to publication of all or selected papers presented at international conferences or other scientific meetings. However, all papers intended for such an issue are subjected to the usual reviewing and acceptance procedure.
