Abstract
The parameters characterizing a transversely isotropic elastic solid are constrained in such a way that the fourth-order partial differential operator appearing in the equations of motion can be factorized into two second-order operators. A closed-form solution, in terms of elementary functions, is then found for the various displacement components when the solid (of unlimited extent) is excited by a point impulsive force.Keywords
