The use of the Google Scholar produces about 78,000 hits on the term “Timoshenko beam.”
The question of priority is of great importance for this celebrated theory. For the first time in …

An asymmetric three-layered laminate with prescribed stresses along the faces is
considered. The outer layers are assumed to be much stiffer than the inner one. The focus is …

Anti-plane dynamic shear of a strongly inhomogeneous dynamic laminate with traction-free
faces is analysed. Two types of contrast are considered, including those for composite …

The present study analyzes the propagation of surface waves on a strongly inhomogeneous
loaded bi-elastic cylindrical tube with variable material constituents. More precisely, due to …

There is a great potential for model-based approaches in which guided waves are utilised
for damage detection, localisation and size estimation. However, to be effective, the model …

In this study, the propagation and kinking of an interface crack between two dissimilar
artificial periodic structures with local resonators is investigated. By Fourier transform, the …

Elastodynamics of a half-space coated by a thin soft layer with a clamped upper face is
considered. The focus is on the analysis of localized waves that do not exist on a clamped …

The nonreciprocal phenomenon appears in nonlinear acoustic metamaterial which are
composed of a linear phononic crystal and a nonlinear layer. Based on the nonlinear …

In this investigation, the nonreciprocal transmission of elastic waves is realized by
enlightenment of an acoustic diode. The phenomenon can be found in a nonlinear elastic …

An asymptotic approach of analysis is used to analyze the antisymmetric anti-plane shear
dispersion of an elastic inhomogeneous five-layered plate in the presence of material …
