Description
In this work, we consider a linearized model for transversely isotropic bodies, in which dispersion is characterized by a preferred direction. We investigate the unsteady incompressible flow of these materials in a planar channel under suitable boundary and initial conditions. The problem is reduced to a system of time-dependent partial differential equations, which is solved using projection algorithm based on spectral methods. We quantify how anisotropic dispersion and material stiffness affect the displacement field.
