Abstract

A system of equations for charged dislocations, where the quadratic nonlinear terms are taken into account, is derived using the variational principle. This system describes the propagation of ultrasonic (US) waves in crystals with charged dislocations. From the linearized system of equations a linear dispersion equation is derived. Formulas for the phase linear velocity of the wave and the absorption coefficient are obtained, which show essential influence of charged dislocations and electrical properties of media on the mentioned quantities. For a nonlinear US wave an equation for the amplitude of the first harmonic is derived and, as a consequence, expressions are obtained for the nonlinear velocity of the US wave, for the attenuation of the first harmonic's amplitude, and for phase variation.
