Granular Crystals: Controlling Mechanical Energy with Nonlinearity and Discreteness [PDF]
, 2011 The presence of structural discreteness and periodicity can affect the propagation of phonons, sound, and other mechanical waves. A fundamental property of many of the periodic structures and materials designed for this purpose is the presence of ...

Estimating the rockburst hazard of hard rocks based on laboratory test results
Vestnik MGTU, 2019 The relevance of the problem under study is based on the fact that dynamic fractures of mine workings occur in rock masses when developing mineral deposits. Safety assurance of mining depends on the awareness of proneness of various rock types to brittle

Energy Propagation in a Cauchy Elastic Material [PDF]
Quarterly of Applied Mathematics, 1972 It has been shown by Schouten [1] that in an anisotropic homogeneous elastic material subjected to infinitesimal deformations the energy propagation vector is necessarily normal to the slowness surface. It can be readily shown (see, for example, [2]) that the bicharacteristics are also normal to the slowness surface.
