Synopsis
Sound waves propagate through galactic space, two-dimensional solids, biological systems, and through everything that surrounds us: the earth, the sea, and the air. The elastic properties of materials determine their sound velocity and provide us with invaluable information about their response to stresses.
The four volume Handbook of Elastic Properties of Materials, edited by Henry Bass, Moises Levy, and Richard Stern provides these properties in a concise and approachable manner for almost everything whose elastic properties have ever been measured or deduced. Leading experts explain the significance of the elastic properties as they relate to intrinsic microscopic behavior, manufacturing, construction, or diagnosis making the Handbook an invaluable tool for scientists and engineers. They discuss the propagation of sound in newly discovered or created materials, and in common materials that are being investigated with state-of-the-art dynamic measurement techniques.
The Handbook is the first book to provide in one source information on solids, liquids, and gases, along with properties of esoteric substances, such as normal and dense stars, superfluid helium three, fullerenes, two dimensional solids, extraterrestial substances, gems and planetary atmospheres. The first volume of the Handbook is dedicated to the measurement techniques involved with elastic properties. Volume Two, Elastic Properties of Solids, covers a wide range of topics, including theory, elements and compounds, novel and technological materials, and alloys. The third volume is concerned with the elastic properties of solids that are derived from biological and organic materials or areinvolved with earth and marine sciences. Finally, the fourth volume deals with the elastic properties of liquids and gases.
