Abstract
The present paper deals with the propagation of body waves in a homogenous isotropic, rotating, generalized thermoelastic solid with voids. The complex quartic secular equation has been solved by employing Descartes’ algorithm and perturbation method to obtain phase velocities, attenuations and specific loss factors of four attenuating and dispersive waves, which are possible to exist in such media. These wave characteristics have been computed numerically for magnesium crystal and presented graphically. Statistical analysis has been performed to compare the obtained computer simulated result in order to have estimate on the suitability of the method to compute various characteristics of the waves. This work may find applications in geophysics and gyroscopic sensors.
