An efficient and powerful technique has been developed to treat the problem of wave propagation along arbitrarily shaped single-mode dielectric waveguides with inhomogeneous index variations in cross-sectional plane. This is based on a modified finite-element method. Illustrative examples were given for following guides: (a) triangular fiber guide; (b) elliptical (c) single material (d) rectangular (g) optical stripline guide.
A constitutive relation for laminated orthotropic shells which includes transverse shear deformation is presented. This involves composite correction factors k112, k222 are determined from an analysis of plane waves in a plate with the same layered construction.

Using the finite element technique, a numerical method is devloped so that one may obtain propagation characteristics of optical waves along guiding structures whose cores be arbitrary cross-sectional shape and material media inhomogeneous in more than transverse direction. Several specific examples are given results compared with those obtained by other exact or approximate methods. Very close agreement was found. The developed here can easily applied to many important problems dealing...

A global local finite element method is developed for axisymmetric scattering of a steady, compressive, incident elastic wave in homogeneous, isotropic host medium by an inclusion. The inclusion may be arbitrary with respect to its geometry and can have inhomogeneous, anisotropic material properties. Examples on spheroidal circular cylindrical inclusions are given. Comparison current data available results show good agreement.
Cross-sectional properties of a prismatic inhomogeneous, anisotropic cylinder are determined from Saint-Venant solutions for extension-bending-torsion and flexure, whose method construction was presented in previous paper. The coupling extensional, bending, twisting deformations due to anisotropy inhomogeneity leads some very interesting features. Herein, it is shown that an cross-sectional plane not material symmetry plane, distinct modulus-weighted compliance-weighted centroids principal...
