Abstract

Biot's poroelastic theory is employed to study stress wave propagation in an infinite slab of arbitrary thickness. The frequency equation is obtained each for pervious and impervious surfaces for a nondissipative medium. Appropriate numerical data is presented in the form of graphs and then results are discussed. Waves in a thin bar and in a semi-infinite slab are discussed as limiting cases.
