This revised and updated edition expands on its explanations of
methods used to analyze waves in solid materials, such as the waves
created by earthquakes and the ultrasonic waves used to detect
flaws in materials and for medical diagnoses. In addition to the
traditional methods used to analyze steady-state and transient
waves in elastic materials, the book contains introductions to
advanced areas that no other single text covers. These topics
include the use of finite elements to solve wave problems, the
Cagniard-de Hoop method, the four-pole technique for analyzing
waves in layered media, and the growth and decay of shock and
acceleration waves. The authors explain the theory of linear
elasticity through the displacement equations of motion, methods
used to analyze steady-state and transient waves in layered media,
and include an appendix on functions of a complex variable.
Originally developed for a graduate course for which no suitable
text existed, the new edition retains its classroom-tested
treatment of the theories of linear elasticity and complex
variables for students needing background in those subjects.Â
