Abstract

One previously developed essentially nonlinear continuum model for a bi-atomic lattice is examined by comparing with the continuum limit of generalized Born-Huang model. It is found that these models do not correspond to each other, while the coefficients of the last model may be evaluated for real bi-atomic crystals. Some new features of the strain waves in the lattice are revealed on the basis of exact traveling wave solutions of the generalized Born-Huang model.
