Abstract
We study the scattering of a long longitudinal radiating bulk strain solitary wave in the delaminated area of a two-layered elastic structure with soft (“imperfect”) bonding between the layers within the scope of the coupled Boussinesq equations. The direct numerical modelling of this and similar problems is challenging and has natural limitations. We develop a semi-analytical approach, based on the use of several matched asymptotic multiple-scale expansions and averaging with respect to the fast space variable, leading to the coupled Ostrovsky equations in bonded regions and uncoupled Korteweg-de Vries equations in the delaminated region. We show that the semi-analytical approach agrees well with direct numerical simulations and use it to study the nonlinear dynamics and scattering of the radiating solitary wave in a wide range of bi-layers with delamination. The results indicate that radiating solitary waves could help us to control the integrity of layered structures with imperfect interfaces.
Long longitudinal bulk strain solitary waves observed in elastic waveguides, such as rods, bars, plates, and shells, can be modelled with Boussinesq-type equations. Radiating solitary waves, that is solitary waves radiating a co-propagating one-sided oscillatory tail, emerge in layered elastic waveguides with soft ("imperfect") bonding between the layers. In this paper, we study the scattering of a radiating solitary wave in delaminated areas of imperfectly bonded bi-layers within the scope of the coupled Boussinesq equations. We develop direct and semi-analytical numerical approaches and demonstrate that radiating solitary waves undergo changes which could be used to control the quality of the interfaces.
