Propagation and reflection of thermoelastic wave in a rotating nonlocal fractional order porous medium under Hall current influence

Abstract

This investigation relates to the research on Hall current on propagation and reflection of elastic waves through non-local fractional-order thermoelastic rotating medium with voids. The system is split up into longitudinal and transverse components using the Helmholtz vector rule. It is observed that, through the frequency dispersion relation four coupled quasi-waves exist in the medium. The rotating solid modifies the nature of purely longitudinal and transverse waves toward the quasi-type waves. All the propagating waves are dispersive as they depend upon angular frequency. The quasi-longitudinal wave qP and quasi-transverse wave qSV faces cut-off frequencies. The nonlocal parameter affect all the waves except the quasi void wave. Analytically, the reflection coefficients of the wave are computed using suitable boundary conditions. MATLAB software is used to perform numerical computations for a chosen solid material. The amplitude ratios and the speed of propagation of the wave are plotted graphically for rotational frequency, nonlocal, fractional order, and Hall current parameter. The significant effect of the physical parameters on the computed results has been observed. The cut-off frequency of the waves is also presented graphically. The energy conservation law is proved in the form of energy ratios. The earlier findings in the literature are obtained as special case in the absence of rotation, Hall current parameter and porous voids.
