✦ Synopsis


Harmonic wave propagation in shells and rods of infinite length is studied. Relations for a finite element model are derived in both Cartesian and cylindrical co-ordinates for the general anisotropy of a linearly elastic material. It is shown that the strain energy of a harmonic wave is not dependent on all elements of the elasticity matrix. Comparison of the proposed FEM solutions with analytical solutions, for both longitudinal and torsional waves in an isotropic cylindrical rod, shows excellent agreement. Some results for a thick cylindrical isotropic shell and an orthotropic square rod are also presented.

We present a numerical algorithm for the determination of muscle response by the ÿnite element method. Hill's three-element model is used as a basis for our analysis. The model consists of one linear elastic element, coupled in parallel with one non-linear elastic element, and one non-linear contrac
