Acoustic Fields and Waves in Solids
B.A. Auld Volume Two applies the material developed in Volume One to a variety of boundary value problems (reflection and refraction at plane surfaces, composite media, waveguides, and resonators). Pursuing the electromagnetic analogue, analytic techniques commonly used in electromagnetism (for example, normal mode emissions) are applied to elastic problems. Two final chapters treat perturbation and variational methods. An appendix lists properties of Rayleigh surface waves on single crystal substrates.
