Focusing on wave propagation in solids, the book delves into mechanical disturbances and their transmission through various media. It highlights the distinction between compression and shear waves, contrasting them with electro-magnetic and acoustic disturbances. The text explains how localized disturbances spread through a medium, leading to reflections at boundaries and the eventual establishment of steady states influenced by static or dynamic equilibrium. It emphasizes the significance of considering wave propagation when the load onset rate exceeds the time needed to reach steady conditions.
