Abstract
This paper presents a methodology allowing for determination of strain soliton velocity in opaque solid materials. The methodology is based on the analysis of soliton evolution in a layer of a transparent material adhesively bonded to the layer of a material under study. It is shown that the resulting soliton velocity in the complex waveguide equals to the arithmetic mean of soliton velocities in the two component materials. The suggested methodology is best suited for analysis of materials with relatively close elastic parameters and can be applied in research of nonlinear wave processes in opaque composites on the basis of transparent matrices.
