Abstract
An analytic solution of a thin layer bonded on a visco-elastic medium under the action of in-plane and lateral pulse loads is presented. The analysis is based on double integral transforms with respect to space and time. Representative examples are studied and discussed to determine the influence of the (a) damping and elastic coefficients of visco-elastic medium, and (b) in-plane compression and stretching of the thin layer on wave propagation.
► Thin layer bonded on a viscoelastic medium under in-plane and lateral dynamic loads. ► Modeling of Very Large Floating Structures. ► Influence of the in-plane loads on the irregularity of the waveform. ► Influence of the damping and elastic coefficients on the wave amplitude.
