Acoustics of Layered Media I

This monograph is devoted to the systematic presentation of the theory of sound­ wave propagation in layered structures. These structures can be man-made, such as ultrasonic filters, lenses, surface-wave delay lines, or natural media, such as the ocean and the atmosphere, with their marked horizontal stratification. A related problem is the propagation of elastic (seismic) waves in the earth''s cr...
