Mathematics of Wave Propagation in Random Media

Abstract

One-dimensional, nonlinear wave motion in an infinitely conducting, electrically neutral, incompressible elastic medium in the presence of a magnetic field is studied; A survey of the theory of elastic waveguides is presented, with special emphasis on guides of general cross-section; Flows of incompressible inviscid heavy fluids with free or rigid boundary surfaces are considered, and The development of the theory of linear wave propagation is described after a brief sketch of what wave propagation is.
