A method for constructing rational, one-dimensional theories of various orders of approximation, descriptive of wave propagation and vibrations in anisotropic elastic bars of rectangular cross section, is presented. As illustrations, several approximate theories are derived which are applicable to extensional motion in rectangular bars of isotropic material.

The exact theory of linearly elastic beams developed by Ladeve`ze and Ladeve`ze and Simmonds is illustrated using the equations of plane stress for a fully anisotropic elastic body of rectangular shape. Explicit formulas are given for the cross-sectional material operators that appear in the special Saint-Venant solutions of Ladeve`ze and Simmonds and in the overall beamlike stress-strain relations between forces and a moment (the generalized stress) and derivatives of certain one-dimensional displacements and a rotation (the generalized displacement). A new definition is proposed for built-in boundary conditions in which the generalized displacement vanishes rather than pointwise displacements or geometric averages.

A cross-sectionally averaged one-dimensional long-wave model is developed. Three-dimensional equations of motion for inviscid and incompressible fluid are first integrated over a channel cross-section. To express the resulting one-dimensional equations in terms of the cross-sectional-averaged longitudinal velocity and spanwise-averaged free-surface elevation, the characteristic depth and width of the channel cross-section are assumed to be smaller than the typical wavelength, resulting in Boussinesq-type equations. Viscous effects are also considered. The new model is, therefore, adequate for describing weakly nonlinear and weakly dispersive wave propagation along a non-uniform channel with arbitrary cross-section. More specifically, the new model has the following new properties: (i) the arbitrary channel cross-section can be asymmetric with respect to the direction of wave propagation, (ii) the channel cross-section can change appreciably within a wavelength, (iii) the effects of viscosity inside the bottom boundary layer can be considered, and (iv) the three-dimensional flow features can be recovered from the perturbation solutions. Analytical and numerical examples for uniform channels, channels where the cross-sectional geometry changes slowly and channels where the depth and width variation is appreciable within the wavelength scale are discussed to illustrate the validity and capability of the present model. With the consideration of viscous boundary layer effects, the present theory agrees reasonably well with experimental results presented by Chang et al. (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 95, 1979, pp. 401–414) for converging/diverging channels and those of Liu et al. (Coast. Engng, vol. 53, 2006, pp. 181–190) for a uniform channel with a sloping beach. The numerical results for a solitary wave propagating in a channel where the width variation is appreciable within a wavelength are discussed.

One-dimensional Gaussion rough surface is simulated and employed by Monte Carlo Method, the composite backscattering from one-dimensional Gaussion rough surface with rectangular cross-section column above it is studied using Method of Moment. The curves of composite backscattering coefficient with scattering angle and frequency of incident wave are simulated by numerical calculation, the influence of the root mean square and the correlation length of rough surface fluctuation, the height between the center of the rectangular cross-section column and the rough surface, the length and the width of the rectangular cross-section column is discussed. The characteristic of the composite back-scatting from one-dimensional Gaussion rough surface with a rectangular cross-section column above it is obtained. The results show that the influences of the root mean square and the correlation length of rough surface fluctuation, the height between the center of the rectangular cross-section column and the rough surface, the width of the rectangular cross-section column on the composite backscattering coefficients are obvious while the influences of the length of the rectangular cross-section column on the complex backscattering coefficient is less.

We propose deducing from three-dimensional elasticity a one dimensional model of a beam when the lateral boundary is not free of traction. Thus the simplification induced by the order of magnitude of transverse shearing and transverse normal stress must be removed. For the sake of simplicity we consider a beam with rectangular cross section. The displacement field in rods can be approximated by using a Taylor–Young expansion in transverse dimension of the rod and we truncate the potential energy at the fourth order. By considering exact equilibrium equations, the highest-order displacement field can be removed and the Euler–Lagrange equations are simplified.

The width of band gap is calculated with lumped mass method in order to study the wave propagation of longitudinal and transverse elastic wave of one-dimensional phononic crystal. The starting and terminating frequency is analyzed by changing the filling rate, the density difference of two materials, cross-section height ratio, and the Young's modulus of the scatter.
