Dynamics of thermoelastic thin plates: A comparison of four theories
Andrew N. Norris
Four distinct theories describing the flexural motion of thermoelastic thin plates are compared. The theories are due to Chadwick, Lagnese and Lions, Simmonds, and Norris. Chadwick…
Optimal orientation of anisotropic solids
Andrew N. Norris
Results are presented for finding the optimal orientation of an anisotropic elastic material. The problem is formulated as minimizing the strain energy subject to rotation of the m…
Acoustic Axes in Elasticity
A. N. Norris
New results are presented for the degeneracy condition of elastic waves in anisotropic materials. The existence of acoustic axes involves a traceless symmetric third order tensor t…
Thermoelastic relaxation in elastic structures with applications to thin plates
Andrew N. Norris, Douglas M. Photiadis
A new result enables direct calculation of thermoelastic damping in vibrating elastic solids. The mechanism for energy loss is thermal diffusion caused by inhomogeneous deformation…
