Abstract
Four systems of one-dimensional waves reduced from the plane-strain eq uations of motion of the neo-Hookean material are studied. It is found that these systems can be decoupled into linear equations. Analytical solutions of these systems are obtained using the method of character istics and the method of eigenfunction expansions. (C) 1997 Elsevier S cience Ltd.
