Description and Table of Contents

Description

Elastic waves possess some remarkable properties and have become ever more important to applications in fields such as telecommunications (signal processing), medicine (echography), and metallurgy (non-destructive testing). These volumes serve as a bridge between basic books on wave phenomena and more technically oriented books on specific applications of wave phenomena. The first volume studies the different mechanisms of propagation in isotropic and anisotropic media. The second volume describes the generation and applications of free and guided waves.

Table of Contents

Historical Survey.- Waves, Fluid as a Scalar Model.- Crystal Properties and Their Representation by Tensors.- Elasticity and Piezoelectricity.- Plane Waves in Crystals.- Guided Waves.
