Abstract
Elastic nonlinear torsional waves in a rod were studied in the second approximation. It was shown that the nonlinear correction to the classical linear solution is a combination of longitudinal standing, longitudinal traveling, and transverse traveling waves. The solution describing the longitudinal standing wave is a quadratic polynomial of Bessel functions. The description of longitudinal traveling and transverse traveling waves includes quadratures of Bessel function polynomials.
