Abstract

A rigorous approach of nonlinear continuum mechanics is used to derive nonlinear wave equations that describe the propagation and interaction of hyperelastic cylindrical waves. Nonlinearity is introduced by means of metric coefficients, the Cauchy—Green strain tensor, and the Murnaghan potential and corresponds to the quadratic nonlinearity of all basic relationships. Quadratically nonlinear wave equations are derived for three states (configurations): (i) axisymmetric configuration dependent on the radial and axial coordinates and independent of the angular coordinate, (ii) configuration dependent on the angular coordinate, and (iii) axisymmetric configuration dependent on the radial coordinate. Four ways of introducing physical and geometrical nonlinearities to the wave equations are analyzed. Six different systems of wave equations are written
