PROPAGATION ON MODULATED CORRUGATED RODS

Abstract

The velocity of surface-wave propagation on 2 types of axially modulated corugated rods was measured experimentally. Type A has a constant outer diameter and sinusoidally varying slot depth, while in type B the slot depth varies in virtue of a modulated outer diameter. In both cases the measured phase velocity was about 10% less than that for a uniformly corrugated rod with the average slot depth and outer diameter, but agreed within 2% over the frequency range used with the value calculated from an analysis based on the Mathieu equation.
