Equations of anisotropic elastodynamics in 3D quasicrystals as a symmetric hyperbolic system: Deriving the time-dependent fundamental solutions

The fundamental solution (FS) of the time-dependent differential equations of anisotropic elasticity in 3D quasicrystals are studied in the paper. Equations of the time-dependent differential equations of anisotropic elasticity in 3D quasicrystals are written in the form of a symmetric hyperbolic system of the first order. Using the Fourier transform with respect to the space variables and matrix transformations we obtain explicit formulae for Fourier images of the FS columns; finally, the FS is computed by the inverse Fourier transform. As a computational example applying the suggested approach FS components are computed for icosahedral QCs.
