In this next example we want to calculate the displacement field $u\hackscore{i}$ for any time $t>0$ by solving the wave equation: |

|
|
\index{wave equation} |
6 |
|
|
\begin{eqnarray}\label{WAVE general problem} |
7 |
|
|
\rho u\hackscore{i,tt} - \sigma\hackscore{ij,j}=0 |
8 |
|
|
\end{eqnarray} |

|
|
in a three dimensional block of length $L$ in $x\hackscore{0}$ |
10 |
|
|
and $x\hackscore{1}$ direction and height $H$ |
11 |
|
|
in $x\hackscore{2}$ direction. $\rho$ is the known density which may be a function of its location. |
12 |
|
|
$\sigma\hackscore{ij}$ is the stress field \index{stress} which in case of an isotropic, linear elastic material is given by |
13 |
|
|
\begin{eqnarray} \label{WAVE stress} |
14 |
|
|
\sigma\hackscore{ij} & = & \lambda u\hackscore{k,k} \delta\hackscore{ij} + \mu ( u\hackscore{i,j} + u\hackscore{j,i}) |
15 |
|
|
\end{eqnarray} |
16 |
|
|
where $\lambda$ and $\mu$ are the Lame coefficients |
17 |
|
|
\index{Lame coefficients} and $\delta\hackscore{ij}$ denotes the Kronecker symbol\index{Kronecker symbol}. |
18 |
|
|
On the boundary the normal stress is given by |
19 |
|
|
\begin{eqnarray} \label{WAVE natural} |
20 |
|
|
\sigma\hackscore{ij}n\hackscore{j}=0 |
21 |
|
|
\end{eqnarray} |
22 |
|
|
for all time $t>0$. |
