Generalized Thermoelastic Lamb Waves in One-Dimensional Hexagonal Quasicrystal Nanoplates
摘要
Quasicrystal (QC) nanostructures frequently operate in high-temperature environments and are subjected to loads such as elastic waves. Therefore, the thermo-phonon-phason coupling effects cannot be neglected when studying elastic waves in these structures. To this end, a fractional-order Lord-Shulman generalized thermoelastic model incorporating integral nonlocal theory is developed to study Lamb waves in a one-dimensional hexagonal QC nanoplate. The dispersion relations and attenuation of thermoelastic Lamb waves are investigated, with particular emphasis on nonlocal effects and thermo-phonon-phason coupling. Numerical simulations based on partial differential equations validate theoretical results. Results demonstrated attenuation jumps in mode conversion regions, as well as frequency-dependent enhancement of phase velocity and attenuation jumps due to size effects. These findings provide critical theoretical guidance for the design and optimization of QC nanostructures in engineering applications.
