Spectral Finite Element

A new spectral plate element (SPE) is developed to analyze wave propagation in anisotropic laminated composite media. The element is based on the first-order laminated plate theory, which takes shear deformation into consideration. The element is formulated using the recently developed methodology of spectral finite element formulation based on the solution of a polynomial eigenvalue problem. By virtue of its frequency-wave number domain formulation, single element is sufficient to model large structures, where conventional finite element method will incur heavy cost of computation. The variation of the wave numbers with frequency is shown, which illustrates the inhomogeneous nature of the wave. The element is used to demonstrate the nature of the wave propagating in laminated composite due to mechanical impact and the effect of shear deformation on the mechanical response is demonstrated. The element is also upgraded to an active spectral plate clement for modeling open and closed loop vibration control of plate structures. Further, delamination is introduced in the SPE and scattered wave is captured for both broadband and modulated pulse loading.

This paper gives a brief overview of some configurations in which high-frequency wave propagation modelled by Helmholtz equation gives rise to solutions that vary rapidly across thin layers. The configurations are grouped according to their mathematical structure and tractability and one of them concerns a famous open problem of mathematical physics.

Band Characteristic

The problem of harmonic wave propagation in an unbounded, periodically layered elastic body in a state of plane strain is examined. The dispersion spectrum is shown to be governed by the roots of an 8 × 8 determinant, and represents a surface in frequency-wave number space. The spectrum exhibits the typical stopping band characteristic of wave propagation in a periodic medium. The dispersion equation is shown to uncouple along the ends of the Brillouin zones, and also in the case of wave propagation normal to the layering. The significance of this uncoupling is examined. Also, the asymptotic behavior of the spectrum for large values of the wave numbers is investigated.
