Tauberian Theory of Wave Fronts in Linear Hereditary Elasticity

The objective of this book is to construct a rigorous mathematical approach to linear hereditary problems of wave propagation theory and demonstrate the efficiency of mathematical theorems in hereditary mechanics. By using both real end complex Tauberian techniques for the Laplace transform, a classification of near-front asymptotics of solutions to considered equations is given—depending on the singularity character of the memory function. The book goes on to derive the description of the ...
