Abstract
We study edge waves propagating along the edge of an asymmetrically laminated elastic plate for which the out-of-plane component of displacement is coupled with the in-plane components. A Stroh-like formulation is used to show that such a plate can support at most two edge waves. An efficient method for computing the edge-wave speeds is proposed and explained through examples.
