A Mathematical Analysis of the Strip-Element Method for the Computation of Dispersion Curves of Guided Waves in Anisotropic Layered Media
Dispersion curves of elastic guided waves in plates can be efficiently computed by the Strip-Element Method. This method is based on a finite-element discretization in the thickness direction of the plate and leads to an eigenvalue problem relating frequencies to wavenumbers of the wave modes. In th...
