Stoneley wave propagation in an orthotropic thermoelastic media with fractional order theory
Parveen Lata and Himanshi
Abstract
The present paper deals with the study of Stoneley wave propagation at the interface of two dissimilar homogeneous orthotropic thermoelastic solids with three phase lags in the context of fractional order theory of thermoelasticity. By using appropriate boundary conditions the secular equations of Stoneley waves are derived in the form of the determinant. The wave characteristics like phase velocity, attenuation coefficient are computed numerically. The numerical simulated results have shown with the help of graphs to show the effect of fractional parameter on the phase velocity, attenuation coefficient, displacement components, stress components and temperature change.
