The propagation of surface waves of symmetric and anti-symmetric families is investigated in a generalized thermoelastic plate. Frequency equations of such surface waves are derived and deduced for the cases of long compressional, flexural and Rayleigh waves. The existence of two modes of vibration is discussed. Numerically and analytically, the phase speeds and attenuations of these waves are computed for a particular model to show the effect of specific heat.

广义热弹性板中的一些表面波

在广义热弹性板中研究了对称和反对称族表面波的传播。针对长纵波、弯曲波和瑞利波的情况，推导了此类表面波的频率方程。讨论了两种振动模式的存在。在数值和分析上，这些波的相位速度和衰减是针对特定模型计算的，以显示比热的影响。
