Thermo-visco-elastic Rayleigh waves under the influence of couple-stress and gravity

This paper is concerned with thermo-visco-elastic Rayleigh waves under the influence of couple-stresses and gravity. A more general phase velocity equation for these waves is derived. It is shown that the phase velocity equation reduces to that of the classical elastic Rayleigh waves in the absence...
