Abstract
The calculation of the first temperature derivatives of the fundamenta l elastic constants proposed by Sinha and Tiersten [J. Appl. Phys. 50, 2732 (1979)] for quartz is applied to isotropic materials. Numerical applications are provided for metals used in acoustic wave devices and which may affect the thermal properties of the latter. (C) 1997 Ameri can Institute of Physics.
