Starting with the basic notions and facts of the mathematical theory of waves illustrated by numerous examples, exercises, and methods of solving typical problems Chapters 1 & 2 show e.g. how to recognize the hyperbolicity property, find characteristics, Riemann invariants and conservation laws for quasilinear systems of equations, construct and analyze solutions with weak or strong discontinuities, and how to investigate equations with dispersion and to construct travelling wave solutions for models reducible to nonlinear evolution equations.
Chapter 3 deals with surface and internal waves in an incompressible fluid. The efficiency of mathematical methods is demonstrated on a hierarchy ... Read more

Reviews for Waves in Continuous Media
“This book is a graduate level text based upon a lecture course on waves in continuous media with particular emphasis on fluid media. It is aimed at students of applied mathematics, mechanics and geophysics. … Waves in a stratified fluid and stability of such waves are also discussed. A number of instructive examples and exercises are given that may be ... Read more
