...Yajuvindra Kumar; Sapna Pandit Purpose In this paper, free axisymmetric vibration analysis of a two-directional functionally graded porous thin annular plate resting on the Winkler foundation is presented utilizing the classical plate theory (CPT). The mechanical properties are considered...

... and the considered tri-mediums are transversely isotropic, porous, and heterogeneous respectively under the impression of initial stress. Design/methodology/approach Heterogeneities are associated with density and rigidity in the intermediate layer and considered heterogeneities are of the trigonometric form...

...Parvez Alam; Suprava Jena; Irfan Anjum Badruddin; Tatagar Mohammad Yunus Khan; Sarfaraz Kamangar Purpose This paper aims to study the attenuation and dispersion phenomena of shear waves in anelastic and elastic porous strips. Numerical investigations are performed for the phase and damped velocity...

...Wei Zhang; Peitong Cong; Kang Bian; Wei-Hai Yuan; Xichun Jia Purpose Understanding the fluid flow through rock masses, which commonly consist of rock matrix and fractures, is a fundamental issue in many application areas of rock engineering. As the equivalent porous medium approach is the dominant...
