Abstract
A new method based on a normal-mode analysis is proposed for the investigat ion of the propagation of plane-wave vibrational excitations in disordered atomic structures. Analysis of the spectral densities in k-space is a key p oint of the current approach. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights res erved.
