Abstract

ABSTRACT The present paper deals with the propagation of Rayleigh surface waves in a nonlocal thermoelastic orthotropic layer which is lying over a nonlocal thermoelastic orthotropic half space. The problem is considered in the context of Green-Naghdi type III model of hyperbolic thermoelasticity and Eringen’s nonlocal elasticity theory in the presence of voids. The problem is solved using eigenfunction expansion method. Frequency equation of Rayleigh waves is derived and different particular cases are also deduced. The effects of voids and nonlocality on different characteristics of Rayleigh waves are presented graphically.
