Shear Horizontal Waves in Orthotropic Layer/Piezoelectric Cylinder Structures

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper investigates the dispersion characteristics of shear horizontal waves propagating in a piezoelectric cylinder covered by orthotropic layer. The surface of the orthotropic layer is assumed to be mechanically free; The stress and displacement at the interface is continuous. The solution of the equation is expressed by Bessel function, and the dispersion equation is derived by using the boundary conditions and the interface conditions, the numerical examples are provided to show the influences of the orthotropic degree and the properties of piezoelectric materials on the dispersion characteristics of SH waves.
