Abstract
We prove the existence of guided waves propagating with a velocity strictly larger than the S (shear) wave velocity at infinity in the case of unbounded elastic media invariant under translation in one space direction and asymptotically homogeneous at infinity.
These waves correspond to the existence of eigenvalues embedded in the essential spectrum of the self‐adjoint elastic propagator.

## Abstract Non‐local dispersive model for wave propagation in heterogeneous media is derived from the higher‐order mathematical homogenization theory with multiple spatial and temporal scales. In addition to the usual space–time co‐ordinates, a fast spatial scale and a slow temporal scale are intr
## Abstract Three non‐dispersive models in multi‐dimensions have been developed. The first model consists of a leading‐order homogenized equation of motion subjected to the secularity constraints imposing uniform validity of asymptotic expansions. The second, non‐local model, contains a fourth‐orde
