Abstract

Inhomogeneous plane wave solutions to the wave equations for a linear isotropic elastic solid and a linear isotropic dielectric are shown to possess energy flux velocity vectors which are non-coincident with corresponding group velocity vectors. In contrast to free surface waves, these examples imply a driving constraint and have an associated non-zero Lagrangian energy density.
