Abstract
Wave propagation in an inhomogeneous hyperbolic-viscoelastic bar of variable cross section, when the various parameters of the solid depend on one space coordinate only, is considered. A transform technique, based on Eason's [1], is used to obtain conditions on these parameters which give solutions to the governing equation in terms of confluent hypergeometric functions and some particular problems are discussed. The formal Karal-Keller asymptotic technique is then introduced and shown to give results which are in agreement with those obtained by the transform technique.
