Internal Friction in Solids II. General Theory of Thermoelastic Internal Friction
Open accessAbstract
Stress inhomogeneities in a vibrating body give rise to fluctuations in temperature, and hence to local heat currents. These heat currents increase the entropy of the vibrating solid, and hence are a source of internal friction. The general theory of this internal friction is here developed. The simplest example of stress inhomogeneity is that occurring in the transverse vibrations of reeds and wires. Explicit formulae are obtained for reeds and wires, and the effect is calculated of crystal orientation in single crystal specimens. Microscopic stress inhomogeneities arise from imperfections, such as cavities, and from the elastic anisotropy of the individual crystallites. The internal friction due to spherical cavities is calculated. The internal friction due to elastic anisotropy is investigated for cubic metals, and is found to be greatest for lead, least for aluminum and tungsten.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
