Study of circular crested waves in a micropolar porous medium possessing cubic symmetry

R. KUMAR and M. PANCHAL
The paper is concerned with the propagation of circular crested Lamb waves in a homogeneous micpropolar porous medium possessing cubic symmetry. The frequency equations, connecting the phase velocity with wave number and other material parameters, for symmetric as well as antisymmetric modes of wave propagation are derived. The amplitudes of displacement components, microrotation and volume fraction field are computed numerically. The numerical results obtained have been illustrated graphically to understand the behavior of phase velocity and attenuation coefficient versus wave number of a wave.
Key words:

cubic crystal, micropolar, porous, phase velocity, attenuation coefficient, frequency equation
