Abstract
In the article the analysis of a monochromatic elastic surface wave in an unlimited plate of limited thickness whose opposite surfaces are planar and mutually parallel, made of an elastic isotropic material of a constant density is described. Equations are calculated for the wave number calculation — speed of surface wave propagation, and an equation for the calculation of the vector components deformation (component trajectory) of the elastic medium.
