Harmonic Generation in Nonlinear Elastic Waveguides

Friday, October 6, 2000 4:00 p.m. Washington De Lima Department of Mechanical Engineering The University of Texas at Austin http://www.me.utexas.edu This seminar describes a theoretical approach to modeling harmonic generation associated with the propagation of finite-amplitude elastic waves in homogeneous, isotropic plates and rods. Solutions of the nonlinear equations of motion for harmonic generation in…
