Abstract
In the present work we discuss the role of small deviation of the sphe rical to spheroidal geometry on the frequency spectrum of the human dr y-skull. The analysis is based on the three dimensional theory of elas ticity, complex analysis techniques and the construction of the Navier eigenvectors for the problem under discussion.
