Generalized hyperbolic fractional equation for transient-wave propagation in layered rigid-frame porous materials.
Résumé
This paper provides a temporal model for the propagation of transient ultrasonic waves in a layered isotropic porous material having a rigid frame. A temporal equivalent fluid model is considered, in which the acoustic wave propagates only in the fluid saturating the material. In this model, the inertial effects are described by the layered tortuosity and the viscous and thermal losses of the medium are described by two layered susceptibility kernels which depend on the viscous and thermal characteristic lengths.The medium is one dimensional ans its physical parameters (porosity, tortuosity, and characteristics lengths) are depth dependent. A generalized hyperbolic fractional equation for transient sound wave propagation in layered material is established.
