Abstract

It is well known that within the framework of linear elastic theory the action of one wave on another cannot be explained. In this paper we give a general three dimensional theoretical analysis for the interaction between two waves propagating in nonlinear elastic solid. To this end, we use a general Landau-Lifshitz model expanded up to 4th order of nonlinearity for the elastic energy function, which in turn results in the 3rd order of non-linearity in the stress-strain relationship. We show detailed derivations specifically for P- and S-waves with a perpendicular direction of propagation of one wave with respect to another wave. The obtained analytical expressions show that the generation of the higher harmonic and modulated waves is a consequence of a nonlinear relationship between stress and strain in a medium. The obtained theoretical derivations will help to give more insights in understanding of models associated with testing methods such as nonlinear wave modulation spectroscopy and other testing methods.
