Abstract

The Cauchy problem for the equations of motion of a homogeneous transversally isotropic elastic medium is considered. For its solution, a short-wavelength asymptotic expansion is constructed, which is also applicable near specific directions. The resonance set, i.e., the set of points at which the ray expansion cannot be used is described.
