This paper concerns wave motion in tunable #uid-"lled beams. The beams comprise two elastic faceplates with a central core of tunable #uid such as electro-rheological or magneto-rheological #uid. Free wave propagation is considered and three wave modes are seen to exist. The corresponding wavenumber

One-dimensional wave propagation along an inhomogeneous waveguide, such as an acoustic horn, a plate strip, a rod, or a beam is considered. The equations of motion of a generic waveguide are written in "rst order form, and the properties of the (position-dependent) eigenvalues and eigenvectors of th
This paper deals with the propagation, reflection and transmission of shear waves in monoclinic media. The dispersion equation for a monoclinic layer overlying a monoclinic half-space has been obtained and curves are plotted. The amplitude ratios for both the reflected and transmitted waves due to r
In this paper, the wave reflection and transmission characteristics of an axially strained, rotating Timoshenko shaft under general support and boundary conditions, and with geometric discontinuities are examined. The static axial deformation due to an axial force is also included in the model. The
The paper focuses on the reflection characteristics of elastic beams having a periodically varying cross-sectional area. Assuming a weak sinusoidal variation of the beam cross-section along its axis, perturbation methods are employed to determine flexural resonance conditions and analyze the resonan
