Phase velocity and attenuation of plane elastic waves in a particle- reinforced composite medium (Q1095695): Difference between revisions

Our study considered effective-plane-wave propagation, both longitudinal and shear, through a medium containing a random distribution of spherical inclusions. We assumed that the particles and matrix are separated by a thin layer of elastic material with different properties. For some systems, we predict measurable effects for the thin layers. Especially, we considered Pb-epoxy and SiC-Al.
