Sp. Pelts et Jl. Rose, SOURCE INFLUENCE PARAMETERS ON ELASTIC GUIDED-WAVES IN AN ORTHOTROPICPLATE, The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 99(4), 1996, pp. 2124-2129
An exact analytical solution for a three-dimensional case of the vibra
tion of an infinite orthotropic plate loaded on its upper boundary is
considered. The influence of source parameters on the characteristics
of wave propagation in an orthotropic elastic infinite plate are analy
zed. An asymptotic approximation for evaluating displacement in the fa
r field is developed. Sample numerical calculation results are present
ed for various source parameters. (C) 1996 Acoustical Society of Ameri
