a b s t r a c t The dispersion relation associated with a symmetric three layer structure, composed of compressible, pre-stressed elastic layers, is derived. This mathematically elaborate transcendental equation gives phase speed as an implicit function of wave number. Numerical solutions are established to show a wide range of dispersion behaviour which is delicately dependent on the material parameters and pre-stress in each layer. Particularly interesting behaviour is observed within the short wave (high wave number) regime, with six possible cases of short wave liming behaviour shown possible. Within each of these, a short wave asymptotic analysis is carried out, resulting in a set of approximations which provide explicit relationships between phase speed and wave number. It is envisaged that these approximations may prove helpful to approximate numerical truncation errors associated with impact response, as well as providing excellent first approximations for particularly (numerically) challenging sets of material parameters.

1. Introduction Many modern technological applications exist in which layered elastic material components are employed. Amongst the most common, we cite the use of layered composites within the aerospace industry and rubber-like vibration control devices used for earthquake protection in bridges and tall buildings. There are also examples of naturally occurring layered structures in geo and biomechanics. With these and other applications in mind, a significant research effort has in recent times been focussed on elucidation of the dynamic properties of layered elastic media. As the complexity of application has increased, considerable effort has been put into a complete understanding of dispersion in layered media. Seemingly the first attempt to consider non-fundamental modes was made in Lamb (1917) for a plane section of an isotropic plate. A more complete study of higher modes of an isotropic plate was later presented in Mindlin (1960). Because of the very complicated structure of the underlying dispersion relations, most of the results in these early papers were obtained through use of numerical computations.

In this present contribution, we aim to add to current understanding by investigating wave propagation in a symmetric 3-layer laminate, with each layer composed of compressible, pre-stressed elastic material. The paper will specifically focus on symmetric (extensional-type) waves and as such generalise the constitutive framework of a study done some years ago for incompressible pre-stressed elastic layers, see Rogerson and Sandiford (2000). Within this present paper a thorough investigation of the dispersion relation associated with the aforementioned structure is carried out. An initial numerical investigation is used to enable short wave asymptotic approximations, giving phase speed explicitly in terms of wave number, to be established. We remark that a detailed understanding of the behaviour of the dispersion relation is a critical pre-requisite in determining dynamic response. Although traditionally much effort has been afforded to fundamental modes, there is very good motivation to not neglect the harmonics. For example, the solution of any impact problem will generally involve contributions from each mode over the entire wave number regime. Moreover, important features, such as surface or interfacial waves, may arise from the cumulative affects of the harmonics, rather than result from the short wave limit of a single mode, see Rogerson (1992). We also remark that Kaplunov et al. (1998) and Kaplunov and Markushevich (1993) show that for certain types of vibration the contributions of higher modes is significant.

The problem of dispersion in layered pre-stressed media has seen a number of publications over the last twenty years. Plane incremental waves in incompressible and compressible elastic single-layer plates (with traction free boundaries) were discussed in Ogden and Roxburgh (1993) and Roxburgh and Ogden (1994), respectively. An asymptotic short wave analysis for a single layer plate was carried out in Rogerson (1997), Sandiford and Rogerson (2000) and Nolde et al. (2004) for incompressible, nearly incompressible and compressible materials, respectively. An extension to three dimensional motion was carried in Pichugin and Rogerson (2002) in respect of incompressible elastic single layer plates. Many of the aforementioned papers are a good source of references to earlier work. The paper is organised as follows. In Section 2 a very brief review of the underlying constitutive theory, and equations of motion, is presented. The dispersion relation is derived in Section 3. A numerical analysis of the dispersion relation is presented in Section 4. From this numerical analysis it is shown that the short wave limiting behaviour may be classified into six distinct cases. Each of these cases are analysed in Section 5, within which short wave asymptotic approximations are established in each case. These approximations, give phase speed as an explicit function of wave number and material parameters for each mode and are shown to provide excellent agreement with the numerical solution over a surprisingly large wave number regime. It is envisaged that these might provide some help in the numerical inversion of the highly oscillatory wave number integrals associated with impact problems. 2. Governing equations Only a brief summary of the relevant underlying theory is presented; for further details the reader is referred to [8]. We begin by considering a homogeneous elastic body B, possessing a natural isotropic unstressed state B0 . A purely homogeneous static deformation is imposed, resulting in the pre-stressed equilibrium state Be . Upon Be , we superimpose a small time dependent motion ui ðX A ; tÞ, resulting in the current material state Bt . Position vectors xi ðX A ; tÞ of a representative particle are denoted by X A ; xi ðX A Þ and ~ xi expressible in the form in B0 ; Be and Bt respectively, with ~

with n the outward unit normal to a material surface in Be . Our aim is to consider wave propagation in layered media, layers having finite thickness in one spatial direction and infinite lateral extent in the other two. Each layer is composed of elastic material characterised by the strain energy function (4). A Cartesian coordinate system Ox1 x2 x3 is chosen, coincident with the principal axes of deformation in Be , with Ox2 normal to the upper traction free surface. A state of plane strain is assumed, with both u1 and u2 independent of x3 and u3  0. On making use of (8)–(10) in (6), the two non-trivial equations of motion are expressed as

If the two roots of equation (15) are denoted by q21 and q22 , we note these may be either real, purely imaginary or complex conjugates, U and V may be presented as linear combinations of four generally independent solutions. On making use of equations (12) and (13), U and V may be expressed as

We note that q ¼ 0 corresponds to propagation in unbounded media, Eq. (15) then yielding v 21 ¼ a11 or c1 . These relate to two body waves propagating along Ox1 , the first longitudinal, the second shear.

We consider a 4-ply (3 layer) symmetric laminated structure, formed of two identical outer layers of thickness h, perfectly bonded to an inner core of thickness 2d, all formed of isotropic pre-stressed elastic materials of the same density. The axes of the left Cauchy-Green strain tensor are assumed coincident for all layers, with one normal to the upper surface. The material parameters of the (identical) outer layers are as denoted in the preceding section, with the inner core’s parameters distinguished by imposing an over tilde. Accordingly, solutions for the inner core are sought in the form

ð27Þ 4. Numerical solutions of the dispersion relations

Inserting appropriate forms of (17)–(20) into (23) yields a system of twelve equations in twelve unknowns. In view of symmetry, this may be reduced to two systems of six equations in six unknowns, one analogous to the classical extensional wave problem, one with the flexural problem. It is the former wave type that we shall focus attention upon in the remainder of this paper. For symmetric ~ 2 and s ~1 vanish at x2 ¼ 0, implying (extensional-like) solutions, U ð1Þ ð2Þ ~ ~ ~ ð3Þ ¼ U ~ ð4Þ , thus yielding from (18) and (19) that U ¼ U and U

Throughout this section, various numerical solutions are presented. The parameters are chosen to demonstrate the range of material response, rather than model any specific material. In examining the numerical behaviour of the dispersion relation, we first use the modified Varga strain energy function

with l and j shear and bulk moduli, respectively. Fig. 1 presents a  against scaled wave number kh for the plot of scaled phase speed v first 28 branches of the dispersion relation (26). First note that in the low wave number limit ðkh; kd ! 0Þ only the fundamental mode retains finite wave speed, with all harmonics having an associated infinite limit. In the high wave number limit ðkh; kd ! 1Þ the fundamental mode tends to a distinct limit, which is in fact the  R  0:67, of the material of the outer Rayleigh surface wave speed, v layers. In this high wave number limit, all harmonics asymptote, from above, to the longitudinal wave speed associated with outer layers. It is observed numerically that in this case one of q1 or q2 is imaginary, the other real, with p1 and p2 both real. As kh; kd ! 1, the magnitude of the imaginary q tends to zero, with 2 ¼ v  21 ¼ a11 . Similar the limiting wave speed, from (15), given by v behaviour is also observed when p1 and p2 are complex conjugates and we therefore define, without loss of generality, case 1 as:

^1 ; q2 real; p1 and p2 real or complex conjugates; case ð1Þ : q1 ¼ iq ^1 ! 0 and v 2 ! v 21 ¼ a11 : as kh; kd ! 1 q

A further prominent feature in Fig. 1 is the flattening of the disper¼ sion curves to form so-called ghost lines around v ¼ v~ 1  1:17; v v 2  1:543. These are longitudinal and shear wave fronts associated with the material of the inner core. A second case, analogous to case 1, occurs when all harmonics asymptote, from above, to the scaled longitudinal wave speed ~ 1 . This case is classified through associated with the inner core, v

with c1 a material parameter and j is the bulk modulus. In Fig. 2, we again note a single finite long wave limit and distinct short wave limit of the fundamental mode. All harmonics are noted to tend to the shear wave speed associated with the two outer layers. In this case, it is observed numerically that one of q1 or q2 is imaginary, the other real, whilst p1 and p2 are both real. Moreover, as kh; kd ! 1, the magnitude of the imaginary q tends to zero. The limiting wave speed of the harmonics is therefore obtainable from equation (15) 2 ¼ v  22 ¼ c1  0:685. This case may therefore classified as as v follows

Fig. 3 illustrates a plot for the first twenty-eight branches of the dispersion relation (26) for layers with the Blatz–Ko strain energy (30). The fundamental mode and harmonics exhibit clear oscillatory behaviour in the high wave number region. This behaviour is a possible feature of pre-stressed materials which is never present within the classic linear isotropic framework, see Rogerson (1998). The short wave limiting speed of the harmonics gives rise to a wave front which is in general neither purely longitudinal nor purely shear in nature. In the limit kh; kd ! 1 both p1 and p2 are imaginary and jp1 j ! jp2 j, whilst q1 and q2 are complex conjugates and retain order 1 magnitude. This limiting behaviour is also observed when q1 and q2 are both real. The limiting wave speed of the harmonics, denoted by v~ 3 , is obtained by allowing the discriminant to vanish in the appropriate form of equation (15). We thus describe this case through the requirements

The  3 is less than both v 1 and v  2 but not case just described, when v the limiting wave speed, arises when jq1 j ! jq2 j but q1 and q2 are both real. The inequalities in (34) then give the range of pre-stress within which the appropriate requirements are satisfied for the given limit to occur. The actual limit of the harmonics in our symmetric 4-ply laminated plate is the lower of v L and v~ L , and, in the vast majority of cases, the lowest of the six possible values.

materials of the inner core and outer layers, respectively, and defined in (34) and (35). It is clear that in general there are six possible wave speed limits for the harmonics as kh; kd ! 1 and that the actual limit is dependent on material parameters. Each of these cases will be analysed in turn. !v  1 with a11 < c1 and c2 ðc1  a11 Þ  b2 > 0 5.2.1. Case 1: v The first case we consider is when the limiting wave speed of the harmonics is the longitudinal wave speed associated with the outer layers. Numerical calculations indicate that for all harmonics v 2 approaches a11 from above and therefore, from (15), it is clear that the requirements outlined in case 1 on q1 ; q2 and p1 ; p2 are  2 < c1 are applicable. Accordingly, valid within the region a11 < v we seek to expand the dispersion relation (26) around the small ^1 and then use (15) to establish that quantity q

in which a superscript ð1Þ indicates that Eq. (26) has been divided ~1C ~ 2 and the subsequent hyperbolic tangents throughout by C 1 C 2 C replaced with unity. After a little algebraic manipulation it can readily be established that the first factor of (36) is in fact the Rayleigh surface wave equation for the material of the outer layer, see Dowaikh and Ogden (1991a). We also note that the second factor is the Stoneley interfacial wave equation, see Dowaikh and Ogden (1991b), associated with the interface between the materials of the outer layers and the inner core. If both waves exist, in general the fundamental mode will tend to the least of these two wave speeds, with the first harmonic tending to the second. An important exception arises when the surface wave speed is greater than the shear and/or longitudinal wave speed of the core. In this case, a ghost line occurs in the dispersion relation, with associated flat maxima of the local group velocity modes in adjacent wave number regions, see Rogerson (1998). Moreover, in any numerical algorithm to determine impact response, based on integral transforms, great care must be taken so as not to miss such an important feature, when it arises through the combination of many harmonics over a large wave number regime, rather than the more commonly reported short wave contribution of a single mode.

corresponds to two distinct branches of the dispersion relation. This is not too surprising, as will be seen in Figs. 7 and 8 that the harmonics group together to form distinct pairs in the high wave number region. Eq. (75) may now be used, in conjunction with Eqs. (72) and (67)1, to obtain

^ 6 ¼ / =np; / ^ þ and / ^  representing solutions of Eq. (75) where / 6 associated with the positive and the negative square roots, respectively. The asymptotic expansions derived for the phase speed are superimposed upon the numerical solutions in Figs. 7 and 8. Fig. 7 shows the second order expansions. Each value on n used in (72) generates an approximate solutions that passes between the 2nth and ð2n  1Þth branches of the numerical dispersion curves, clearly indicating that the second order expansion is not sufficient to describe the behaviour of the numerical solutions accurately. When the expansions are taken to higher order, as in Fig. 8, the oscillations are fully accounted for by the trigonometric functions within the third order term of Eq. (76) and the two roots of the quadratic equation in /6 now provide an asymptotic approximation for each harmonic. These provide a highly reasonable approximation to the phase speed both in the high and moderate kh region. 6. Concluding remarks

In this paper, the dispersion of symmetric (extensional-like) waves in a symmetric three-layer structure has been investigated. The investigation has been carried out within the framework of compressible, pre-stressed elastic media, with each layered assumed composed of such material. The dispersion relation is a mathematically elaborate transcendental equation, derived from a six by six determinant, which gives phase speed (or frequency) as an implicit function of wave number. A thorough numerical analysis reveals the nature of the dispersion relation and provides a sign post for the derivation of some short wave approximation of the harmonics in each of the six different cases which are shown to exist. These approximations provide can explicit relationship between phase speed and wave number and are shown to provide highly accurate approximations over a wide wave number range. Having these explicit approximations may prove helpful to approximate numerical truncation errors, as well as provide an excellent first approximation in numerical dispersion schemes for particularly challenging sets of material parameters.
