In this article, the results of a numerical evaluation of a characteristic equation derived in Part I, appropriate to free harmonic waves propagated along a hollow cylinder of infinite extent, were given for some representative cylinders covering the entire range from thin shells to solid cylinders.Abstract:
The results are given of a numerical evaluation of a characteristic equation derived in Part I, appropriate to free harmonic waves propagated along a hollow cylinder of infinite extent. This equation is evaluated for some representative cylinders covering the entire range from thin shells to solid cylinders, and the results are compared with the corresponding results of a shell theory. Observations are made regarding the variation of the frequency spectrum with the physical parameters, as well as the range of applicability of shell theories.read more

TL;DR: The approximate analytical algorithms presented in this paper provides a convenient method enabling quick acoustic field analysis on large-diameter industrial pipes for NDE applications and predicts that the wave beam will converge to its original circumferential shape after the wave propagates for a certain distance.

Guided wave propagation in an elastic hollow cylinder coated with a viscoelastic material
TL;DR: The propagation of ultrasonic guided waves in an elastic hollow cylinder with a viscoelastic coating is studied to provide tools for performing a guided wave, nondestructive inspection of piping and tubing with viscoels, and to show some guided wave modes that propagate with little or no attenuation in the coated structures of interest.
