Viscoelastic Waves and Rays in Layered Media

Discover the intricacies of wave propagation with "Viscoelastic Waves and Rays in Layered Media," authored by Roger Borcherdt and published by Cambridge University Press in 2020. This comprehensive 450-page hardback, now available in its 2nd Revised Edition, extends the established theories surrounding viscoelastic wave behavior to incorporate head waves and a broader general ray theory. These fresh additions, which have not been explored in previous publications, enhance the text's value for advanced university courses, as well as for research and practical applications in fields such as seismology, exploration geophysics, engineering, solid mechanics, acoustics, and physics. Ideal for students and professionals alike, this book is a vital resource for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of viscoelastic wave propagation in layered media.
