A problem on Rayleigh wave in a rotating half-space of an orthotropic micropolar material is considered.The governing equations are solved for surface wave solutions in the half space of navy drapery fabric the material.These solutions satisfy the boundary conditions at free surface of the half-space to obtain the frequency equation of the Rayleigh wave.For numerical purpose, the frequency equation is approximated.The nondimensional berness white sneakers speed of Rayleigh wave is computed and shown graphically versus nondimensional frequency and rotation-frequency ratio for both orthotropic micropolar elastic and isotropic micropolar elastic cases.
The numerical results show the effects of rotation, orthotropy, and nondimensional frequency on the nondimensional speed of the Rayleigh wave.
