Since Head first demonstrated the advantages of computer displayed theoretical intensities from defective crystals, computer display techniques have become important in image analysis. However the computational methods employed resort largely to numerical integration of the dynamical equations of electron diffraction. As a consequence, the interpretation of the results in terms of the defect displacement field and diffracting variables is difficult to follow in detail. In contrast to this type of computational approach which is based on a plane-wave expansion of the excited waves within the crystal (i.e. Darwin representation ), Wilkens assumed scattering of modified Bloch waves by an imperfect crystal. For localized defects, the wave amplitudes can be described analytically and this formulation has been used successfully to predict the black-white symmetry of images arising from small dislocation loops.

Rayleigh–Bloch (RB) waves in elasticity, in contrast to those in scalar wave systems, appear to have had little attention. Despite the importance of RB waves in applications, their connections to trapped modes and the ubiquitous nature of diffraction gratings, there has been no investigation of whether such waves occur within elastic diffraction gratings for the in-plane vector elastic system. We identify boundary conditions that support such waves and numerical simulations confirm their presence. An asymptotic technique is also developed to generate effective medium homogenized equations for the grating that allows us to replace the detailed microstructure by a continuum representation. Further numerical simulations confirm that the asymptotic scheme captures the essential features of these waves.
