Wave Propagation in Periodic Shells with Tapered Wall Thickness and Changing Material Properties
A theoretical method based on the Transfer Matrix Formulation and Wavelet Transforms is developed in order to effectively investigate the influence of periodicity, variable geometry and material properties on the wave propagation characteristics of axis-symmetric shells. Several experiments have bee...
