Popis: The use of magnetic dipoles embedding in an elastic support introduces long-range interaction forces. This is a completely new paradigm in structural mechanics, classically based on local short-range particle interaction. The features of long-range forces produce very new mechanical coupling effects. This paper examines the case in which two identical rod-like structures, each with a dipole distribution embedded, vibrate side by side. Waves generated in one of the rods propagate also in the second and vice versa creating a new effect we name twin-waves. The present investigation unveils the existence of an infinite set of numerable waves even in one-dimensional infinite structures, a new and unusual behaviour in classical waveguides. The physics behind this phenomenon is further investigated also by numerical simulations.
