Yv. Gulyaev, REVIEW OF SHEAR SURFACE ACOUSTIC-WAVES IN SOLIDS, IEEE transactions on ultrasonics, ferroelectrics, and frequency control, 45(4), 1998, pp. 935-938
General considerations about physical reasons for the existence of sur
face acoustic waves and, in particular, shear surface acoustic waves i
n solids are presented. The results of calculations for various types
of shear surface acoustic waves are described, and corresponding physi
cal explanations are given.
