Surface Acoustic Waves in Inhomogeneous Media covers almost all
important problems of the interaction of different types of surface
acoustic waves with surface inhomogeneities. The problems of surface
acoustic wave interaction with periodic topographic gratings widely used
in filters and resonators are under careful consideration. The most
important results of surface wave scattering by local defects such as
grooves, random roughness, elastic wedges are given. Different
theoretical approaches and practical rules for solving the surface wave
problems are presented.
