โฆ Synopsis
The propagation of elastic waves in piezoceramic cylindrical waveguides of circular cross-sections with sector cut is investigated on the basis of the linear theory of electroelasticity. Dispersion functions are obtained from boundary conditions in an analytical form of functional determinants for each value of the generalized wave number. A selected set of numerical results including real, imaginary and complex branches of full dispersion spectrums with various symmetry of wave movements is presented to describe the essential characteristics of the waves. Leading effects of spectrums transformation by change of waveguide's angular measure are enlightened, and wave asymptotic behavior is analyzed. The variation of the cross-section is considered as a mechanism to control the dispersion characteristics of waveguides.
