RAYLEIGH WAVES ON ELASTIC CRYSTALS

P. K. CURRIE {dagger}

( School of Mathematics and Physics, University of East Anglia Norwich )

An improved proof is given of Stroh's result that the secular equation for unattenuated Rayleigh waves travelling on a free surface of an anisotropic elastic halfspace can always be reduced to one purely real equation. In addition it is shown that surface waves are impossible on a fixed boundary.
