Comprehensive textbook for students and research workers offers self-contained coverage of a variety of topics ranging from the elementary theory of waves and vibrations in strings to the three-dimensional theory of waves in thick plates. Emphasis is on analytical and experimental results, in addition to theoretical development. Appendices contain introductory material on elasticity, transforms and experimental techniques. Over 100 problems.
