Abstract

To describe the propagation of acoustic surface waves in an anisotropic layer, a six-dimensional complex formalism is introduced, a Hamiltonian is constructed, an analogue of the Rayleigh dissipative function, and an exponential fundamental matrix. Dispersion equations are obtained for a multilayer plate with different conditions on the boundary surfaces. Examples of the application of the Cauchy formalism to the analysis of the dispersion of Lamb waves are given.
