Wave propagation can be significantly affected by the microstructural properties of the transmission medium. Typical effects due to the presence of inhomogeneities, such as inclusions or cavities, are the scattering of incident waves, the wave attenuation and the variation of wave velocities. In the present work, transient wave scattering in an elastic matrix containing a distribution of cracks is studied. Nonlinear effects due to opening of cracks under tension and closure under pressure are taken into account.

Abstract
Wave propagation can be significantly affected by the microstructural properties of the transmission medium. Typical effects due to the presence of inhomogeneities, such as inclusions or cavities, are the scattering of incident waves, the wave attenuation and the variation of wave velocities. In the present work, transient wave scattering in an elastic matrix containing a distribution of cracks is studied. Nonlinear effects due to opening of cracks under tension and closure under pressure are taken into account.File in questo prodotto:
