Eleven shear surface waves guided by inclusions in magneto-electro-elastic materials
Abstract
Description
Eleven pure shear surface waves are shown to exist in magneto-electro-elastic materials, which contain different plane inclusions inside them. The plane inclusions affect the electric and magnetic fields only, so that the medium remains mechanically continuous across it. Expressions for velocities of propagation of these 11 surface waves are obtained in explicit forms. It is expected that these waves will have several applications in surface acoustic wave devices.
