Surfaces of strong discontinuity in one-dimensional nonlinearly elastic media

Definitions

Ray expansions approach for studying the surfaces of strong and weak discontinuity propagating in nonlinear elastic media.

Introduction

A method for solving dynamic problems of continuous media in the form of power series with respect to time behind the moving wave fronts propagating in a medium was suggested in Achenbach and Reddy (1967). Subsequently this approach was called the ray method. For the same purpose, power series in terms of the ray coordinate was utilized, measured from the surface of discontinuities (Babicheva et al. 1973). The effectiveness of the ray method for investigating the features of boundary waves propagating in deformable media was later confirmed by a number of publications, a review of which is given in Rossikhin and Shitikova (1995a) and Podil'chuk and Rubtsov (1986). In the case, when the shock wave (surface of strain discontinuity) is the leading front of...
