탄성파 전파 과정의 정량적인 이해와 그 가시화는 결함 탐지는 물론이고, 재료의 물성 평가에 매우 중요하다. 대상 재료가 이방성을 지닐 경우에 탄성파 전파 과정은 복잡해져서 전파 과정의 해석 및 가시화 작업은 탄성파를 이용하는 결함 탐지 및 재질 평가에서는 필수적이다. 이방성 재료에서는 탄성파의 속도가 방향에 따라서 달라짐은 물론이고, 위상 속도와 군 속도의 방향이 어긋나서 파면이 진행하는 방향과 에너지가 진행하는 방향이 달라진다(beam skewing 효과). 특히 복합재료와 같이 이방성이 큰 재료에서는 이 효과가 매우 크게 나타나므로 탄성파를 이용한 시험 결과를 해석하고자 할 때에는 반드시 전파 과정을 이해해야 한다. 이방성 재료에 대해 해석적인 접근에는 한계가 있어서 유한차분법(finite difference method: FDM)과 같은 수치 해석 방법이 유용하게 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 탄성파 전파 과정을 해석할 수 있는 2차원 FDM 프로그램을 개발하고, 이를 이용하여 이방성 재료에서의 탄성파 전파에 대한 전산 시뮬레이션 결과를 비교 분석한다.

The elastic wave equation is solved using the finite-difference method in 3D space to simulate the seismic wave propagation. It is based on the velocity-stress formulation of the equation of motion on a staggered grid. The nonreflecting boundary conditions are used to attenuate the wave field close to the numerical boundary. To satisfy the stress-free conditions at the free-surface boundary, a new formulation combining the zero-stress formalism with the vacuum one is applied. The effective media parameters are employed to satisfy the traction continuity condition across the media interface. With use of the moment-tensor components, the wide range of source mechanism parameters can be specified. The numerical experiments are carried out in order to test the applicability and accuracy of this scheme and to understand the fundamental features of the wave propagation under the generalized elastic media structure. Computational results show that the scheme is sufficiently accurate for modeling wave propagation in 3D elastic media and generates all the possible phases appropriately in under the given heterogeneous velocity structure. Also the characteristics of the ground motion in an sedimentary basin such as the amplification, trapping, and focusing of the elastic wave energy are well represented. These results demonstrate the use of this simulation method will be helpful for modeling the ground motion of seismological and engineering purpose like earthquake hazard assessment, seismic design, city planning, and etc..

The present paper is devoted to study SH-wave propagation in heterogeneous layer laying over an inhomogeneous isotropic elastic half-space. The dispersion relation for propagation of said waves is derived with Green's function method and Fourier transform. As a special case when the upper layer and lower half-space are homogeneous, our derived equation is in agreement with the general equation of Love wave. Numerically, it is observed that the velocity of SH-wave increases with the increase of inhomogeneity parameter.

This paper presents an analytical study of wave propagation in simply supported graduated functional plates resting on a two-parameter elastic foundation (Pasternak model) using a new theory of high order shear strain. Unlike other higher order theories, the number of unknowns and governing equations of the present theory is only four unknown displacement functions, which is even lower than the theory of first order shear deformation (FSDT). Unlike other elements, the present work includes a new field of motion, which introduces indeterminate integral variables. The properties of the materials are assumed to be ordered in the thickness direction according to the two power law distributions in terms of volume fractions of the constituents. The wave propagation equations in FG plates are derived using the principle of virtual displacements. The analytical dispersion relation of the FG plate is obtained by solving an eigenvalue problem. Numerical examples selected from the literature are illustrated. A good agreement is obtained between the numerical results of the current theory and those of reference. A parametric study is presented to examine the effect of material gradation, thickness ratio and elastic foundation on the free vibration and phase velocity of the FG plate.

콘크리트 포장의 품질관리 항목 중에서 압축 강도는 매우 중요한 인자로 여겨져 왔다. 압축 강도 값을 얻기 위해 현장에서 코아를 채취하여 이를 품질관리의 기준으로 사용하였다. 그렇지만, 코아를 채취하는 것은 많은 인력과 시간을 필요로 하며 실제로 현장의 품질관리를 정확히 추정하는데 많은 어려움이 있다. 또한 포장의 설계 방법도 탄성계수에 근거한 역학적-경험적 방법이 도입되고 있다. 이러한 현장의 품질관리 문제점을 해결하고, 포장설계와의 연계를 위해 비파괴 실험방법이 도입되고 있다. 다양한 비파괴 실험 방법 중에서 이론적으로 탄성계수를 추정할 수 있는 방법은 Wave Propagation방법이므로 본 연구에서는 Wave Propagation 방법을 도입하였다. 본 연구에서는 현장의 품질관리를 수행하는 방법 중의 일환으로 실내에서 제작한시편의 압축 강도와 비파괴 방법으로 얻은 탄성 계수와의 상관성을 검토하였으며, 비파괴 방법으로 얻은 탄성 계수로부터 압축 강도를 추정 할 때 배합별 특성에 대한 분석을 실시하였다. 비파괴 실험에서 구한 탄성계수와 압축강도와의 상관성은 매우 우수한 것으로 판명되었으며, 골재의 종류별로 상관성이 서로 상이하게 나타남을 알 수 있었다.

The ability to locate the defects in materials is one of the major attrations of the acoustic emission(AE) technique. The most conventional method for planar AE source localization is to place three or more AE sensors on the plate and to determine the source position by measuring the differences in the arrival times of the AE wave at the sensors, which is called as triangulation method. But this method can not be applied in the material of which elastic wave propagtion velocity is not known. In this paper, we propose two methods, vector method and error minimization method, for AE source location on the material with unknown AE wave velocity. In this method, it is not needed to know the propagation velocity previously, that is, we can apply this method to arbitrary material of which properties are not known exactly. Also, in this paper, the robustness to the error in the measurement of time differences are discussed for both methods. Finally, in order to evaluate the actual performances, experiments using a pencil lead break as the AE source were carried out on the aluminum plate.

Longitudinal wave tests with finite elastic medium were performed to investigate the difference between measured values and theoretical values of propagation velocity and elasticity modulus. Each accelerometer was attached on finite elastic medium with same phase and different positions to check the particle motion. The results show that measured values of elasticity moduli from both time domain and frequency domain were similiar to theoretical value. Polarity of signal depends entirely on the phase of accelerometer. It proved that the propagation velocity and the particle motion are in the same direction when a compressive stress is applied. And also the propagation velocity and the particle motion depend on the intensity of the stress and material properties respectively.

In cells, the microtubules are surrounded by viscoelastic medium. Microtubules, though very small in size, perform a vital role in transportation of protein and in maintaining the cell shape. During performing these functions waves propagate and this propagation of waves has been investigated using nonlocal elastic theory. But the effect of surrounding medium was not taken into account. To fill this gap, this study considers the viscoelastic medium along with nonlocal elastic theory. The analytical formulas of the velocity of waves, and the results reveal that the presence of medium reduces the velocity. The axisymmetric and nonaxisymmetric waves are separately discussed. Furthermore, the results are compared with the results gained from the studies of free microtubules. The presence of medium around microtubules results in the increase of the flexural rigidity causing a significant decrease in radial wave velocity as compared to axial and circumferential wave velocities. The effect of viscoelastic medium is more obvious on radial wave velocity, to a lesser extent on torsional wave velocity and least on longitudinal wave velocity.

Non-destructive exploration using elastic waves has been widely used to characterize rock mass properties. Wave propagation in jointed rock masses is significantly governed by the characteristics and orientation of discontinuities. The relationship between spatial heterogeneity (i.e., joint spacing) and wavelength for elastic waves propagating through jointed rock masses have been investigated previously. Discontinuous rock masses can be considered as an equivalent continuum material when the wavelength of the propagating elastic wave exceeds the spatial heterogeneity. However, it is unclear how stress-dependent long-wavelength elastic waves propagate through a repetitive rock-joint system with multiple joints. A preliminary numerical simulation was performed in in this study to investigate long-wavelength elastic wave propagation in regularly jointed rock masses using the three-dimensional distinct element code program. First, experimental studies using the quasi-static resonant column (QSRC) testing device are performed on regularly jointed disc column specimens for three different materials (acetal, aluminum, and gneiss). The P- and S-wave velocities of the specimens are obtained under various normal stress levels. The normal and shear joint stiffness are calculated from the experimental results using an equivalent continuum model and used as input parameters for numerical analysis. The spatial and temporal sizes are carefully selected to guarantee a stable numerical simulation. Based on the calibrated jointed rock model, the numerical and experimental results are compared.
