According to a thermodynamic theory proposed by G. Grioli, we consider the problem of determining the solutions for the growth of acceleration waves in an elastic body. At first we determine a property of the velocities of waves propagation and we determine some limitations for the free energy; then we resolve the above mentioned problem for the «small» waves working on the iperacceleration waves.
In this paper we study waves propagation along a traction free surface of a infinite body composed of two different thermoelastic isotropic half-spaces in welded contact.
In this paper we prove that for elastic, isotropic, omogeneus materials for which the heat flux vector obey the relation of Cattaneo there is a unique continuously differentiable entropy function.
In questa Nota, che è il seguito della Nota precedente, proseguiamo lo studio del problema di equilibrio di un involucro elastico pieno di gas, considerando piccole perturbazioni di una configurazione di equilibrio, prodotte da insufflazioni o desufflazioni di piccole quantità di gas. Limitando la nostra attenzione al caso che l'involucro sia una corona sferica che subisce solo deformazioni radiali, mostriamo che, per un valore critico dello spessore della corona, il carattere non locale delle condizioni...
We consider an incompressible elastic solid which admits a configuration of equilibrium having the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped when external forces are absent. We look for a thermoelastic transformation mapping that configuration onto a cylindrical wedge . The problem we consider is analogous to the one where both and are cylindrical crowns. This case has been considered by T. Manacorda Referring to a system of cylindrical coordinates , and , we show that the transformation...
