ULTRASONIC GUIDED WAVES IN SOLID MEDIA
This book is intended to bring readers up to speed with the latest developments in the field, especially new work in ultrasonic guided waves. It is designed for students and for researchers and managers somewhat familiar with the field in order to serve as a baseline for further work already under way. This text also includes extended problems and a corresponding solutions manual as a resource for the reader. A wave propagation animations collection will be available on CD. A distance learning course from The Pennsylvania State University will also be procurable. Join Dr. Rose on an exciting journey to explore breakthroughs in the understanding and application of ultrasonic guided waves.
Ultrasonic Guided Waves in Solid Media is available for purchase here through Amazon.com.
