Acoustic wave and eikonal equations in a transformed metric space for various types of anisotropy

Acoustic waves propagating in anisotropic media are important for various applications. Even though these wave phenomena do not generally occur in nature, they can be used to approximate wave motion in various physical settings. We propose a method to derive wave equations for anisotropic wave propa...
