Rigorous analysis of STWs in nonperiodic arrays including mechanical and electrical interactions

Properties of Love waves: applications in sensors

“…It has been found that ST-cut quartz fulfills the above conditions provided the propagation direction x is chosen orthogonal to the crystalline X axis. Assuming that these conditions are fulfilled, theoretical calculations for shear wave phenomena can be based on a reduced set of variables which yields a reduced complexity of the associated computational tasks (see, e.g., [20]).…”

Numerical Investigation of the Propagation Characteristics of Surface Transverse Wave Considering Various Quartz Substrate and Electrode Configurations

“…During that period, investigations regarding the propagation of SSBW on shallow corrugation surfaces were widely conducted (Auld, Gagnepain, 1976;Auld, Yeh, 1979), establishing the fundaments of STW. Later on, the investigations on the differences between STW and Rayleigh wave (Auld et al, 1982), the propagation characteristics of STW under period and non-period structures (Baghai-Wadji et al, 1988;Danicki, 1983;Ronnekleiv, 1986;Thompson, Auld, 1986), and the development and fabrication of STW-based resonators (Auld, Thompson, 1987;Bagwell, Bray, 1987;Flory, Baer, 1987;Strashilov et al, 1997) have been carried out as well. Recently, related micro-strain sensors (Fu et al, 2016), torque sensors (Ji et al, 2016), vapor sensors (Stahl et al, 2018) and resonators (Doberstein, Veremeev, 2019) have been reported.…”
