title: Prediction and observation of strain waves in the Earth
abstract: The theoretical prediction of strain waves in the Earth is one of the most significant achievements in geophysics of the last third of the 20th century. Using the strain wave theory, the physical foundations were developed for the mathematical theory of strain wave propagation, and the search for methods that could detect the strain waves in experiment and simulation has commenced. This article provides an overview of the history of the strain wave theory and describes the observation methods, t
