Elastic Wave Scattering on a Thin‐Walled Inclusion

Abstract

AbstractThe dynamic three‐dimensional problem of interaction between an elastic wave and a thin‐walled elastic inclusion is considered. The incident wave length is comparable to the large linear size of the inclusion. Integral equations of motion are obtained by means of the asymptotic approach proposed. The deflections of a circular plate and a fragment of a spherical shell embedded in the medium are calculated in the case of axial symmetry.
