International Journal of Theoretical and Applied Multiscale Mechanics (IJTAMM), Vol. 2, No. 4, 2013

Abstract: In this paper, the equations of motion for an incompressible rotating orthotropic elastic solid are solved in two-dimension. The velocity equation of the homogeneous plane wave and the secular equation for the Rayleigh surface wave are obtained. The non-dimensional speeds of the homogeneous plane wave and the Rayleigh surface wave are computed numerically for different values of a non-dimensional elastic constant and rotation parameter. These speeds are also shown graphically to observe the effects of the rotation and anisotropy parameters.
