A technique involving the higher Wronskians of a differential equation is presented for
analysing the dispersion relation in a class of wave propagation problems. The technique …

The plane strain time-harmonic motion of an immersed cylindrical elastic shell is considered.
The revisit to this classical problem is motivated by modern technical applications, including …

A mathematical analysis of wave propagation along an elastic cylindrical tube is presented,
with the aim of determining the range of Poisson's ratio for which backward wave …

This thesis deals with surface wave propagation in elastic solids. It develops further the
methodology of asymptotic hyperbolic-elliptic models for the surface elastic waves, aiming at …

Forced low-frequency vibrations of a functionally graded thin-walled cylindrical shell
submerged in a compressible fluid are investigated. The problem undergoes asymptotic …
