Abstract

We first introduce the Lamé system that governs the elastic wave propagation in \(\mathbb {R}^n\), \(n=2, 3\). Throughout, we let \(\mathscr {C}\) and \(\rho \) signify the constitutive material parameters of an elastic medium. Here, \(\mathscr {C}(\textbf{x})=(\mathscr {C}_{ijkl}(\textbf{x}))_{i,j,k,l=1}^n\) is a four-rank real-valued tensor satisfying the following symmetry property.
