Elastodynamics. Sinusoidal progressive waves
Keyword(s):
This chapter briefly considers linear elasticity under circumstances in which inertial effects are accounted for, and states the initial-boundary-value-problem of linear elastodynamics. Sinusoidal progressive waves form an important class of solutions to the equations of linear elastodynamics. Such waves for isotropic media in the absence of a conventional body force are considered and it is shown that for an isotropic medium only two types of sinusoidal progressive waves are possible: longitudinal and transverse.
