Acoustic Fields and Waves in Solids

Bert A. Auld
TLDR
In this article, the authors apply the material developed in the Volume One to various boundary value problems (reflection and refraction at plane surfaces, composite media, waveguides and resonators).
Abstract
This work, part of a two-volume set, applies the material developed in the Volume One to various boundary value problems (reflection and refraction at plane surfaces, composite media, waveguides and resonators). The text also covers topics such as perturbation and variational methods.

Quantum-mechanical condensed matter simulations with CRYSTAL

TL;DR: The Crystal program as discussed by the authors adopts atom-centered Gaussian-type functions as a basis set, which makes it possible to perform all-electron as well as pseudopotential calculations.

Magnetic resonance elastography: Non-invasive mapping of tissue elasticity

TL;DR: Magnetic resonance elastography shows promise as a potential technique for 'palpation by imaging', with possible applications in tumor detection, characterization of disease, and assessment of rehabilitation (particularly in muscle).

Microscale acoustofluidics: Microfluidics driven via acoustics and ultrasonics

TL;DR: In this article, the use of acoustic fields, principally ultrasonics, for application in microfluidics is reviewed, and the abundance of interesting phenomena arising from nonlinear interactions in ultrasound that easily appear at these small scales is considered, especially in surface acoustic wave devices that are simple to fabricate with planar lithography techniques.

Ultrasonic Guided Waves in Solid Media

TL;DR: The semi-analytical finite element method (SAFE) has been used for guided wave modeling as discussed by the authors, which has been shown to be useful in the analysis and display of non-destructive testing.

Physical properties of crystals

John F. Nye
TL;DR: In this paper, the physical properties of crystals systematically in tensor notation are presented, presenting tensor properties in terms of their common mathematical basis and the thermodynamic relations between them.

Field theory of guided waves

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a model for waveguide decomposition in terms of waveguide discontinuities and waveguides and cavities, and apply it to artificial dielectrics.
