After a short introduction to the understanding of focussing of stress waves in a plate with a curved boundary the method of characteristics is applied to a plate of hyperelastic material. Using this method the propagation of acceleration waves is discussed. Based on this a numerical difference scheme is developed for solving initial-boundary-value problems and applied to two examples: propagation of a point disturbance in a homogeneously finitely strained non-linear elastic plate and geometrical focussing in al linear elastic plate.}, subject = {Technische Mechanik}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{Raatschen1985, author = {Raatschen, Hans-J{\"u}rgen}, title = {Fokussierung ebener Spannungswellen in einer linearelastischen Scheibe}, series = {Sonderforschungsbereich 27 Wellenfokussierung der Rheinisch-Westf{\"a}lischen Technischen Hochschule Aachen, Kolloquium 3. und 4.
