Abstract

A tensor method has been developed for the calculation of the frequencies of vibration of an infinite plate of any crystalline substance cut at any orientation. By the use of this theory a set of curves have been calculated showing the three characteristic frequencies for plates of quartz cut at various orientations. These results are in good agreement with the experimental work of the authors and other observers.
