Evolution behavior of transverse shocks in a nonlinear elastic layer

From MaRDI portal





The propagation of a plane transverse shock wave along a thin elastic layer is investigated. By averaging the equations of motion over the width of the layer the problem is reduced to a system of partial differential equations in one space dimension and time. The theory of singular surfaces is applied to establish relations between the discontinuities of the strain gradient and its derivatives. Explicit results are developed for a special incompressible elastic material. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0911.00028].
