| Sumario: | [EN] A spectral collocation method is proposed to compute the complex wavenumber-real frequency dispersion relations of guided acoustic waves in multilayer structures involving dissipative materials. The nature of these dissipative materials is initially considered to be arbitrary, i.e., poroelastic, viscoelastic, or viscoacoustic. For a given frequency, the complex wavenumbers as well as the physical fields, which are further used to evaluate the Poynting vectors and analyze the energy flux, are obtained by solving a generalized eigenvalue problem. The latter arises from a set of discretized equations of motion and appropriate boundary (coupling) conditions. These equations of motion and boundary (coupling) conditions are imposed by the nature of the material composing each layer of the structure. A focus is made on poroelastic layers. The dispersion relation of a two-layer elastic-poroelastic structure is analyzed, as well as the energy flows in the structure. The results as calculated with the present spectral collocation method are validated against those obtained with a classical complex root-finding (M & uuml;ller) method and experiments.
