We use bulk waves and surface waves to address the questions of dissipation and of material and geometric stability. In particular, the analysis provides bounds on the constitutive parameters and on the predeformation that ensure linearized stability in the neighbourhood of a large pre-stretch. This type of result is relevant to the imaging of biological soft tissues using acoustical techniques, where pre-deformation is known to increase contrast and reduce de-correlation noise. date: 2009-05 date_type: published id_number: 10.1007/s00033-008-7147-6 uniqueid: glaseprints:2009-25277 published_online: 2008-07-02 issn_online: 1420-9039 journal_abbr: ZAMP scopus_impact: 2 scopus_cluster: 2-s2.0-67349086049 scopus_datestamp: 2013-10-25 21:11:12 wos_impact: 2 wos_cluster: WOS:000265298900009 wos_datestamp: 2013-10-24 22:28:07 full_text_status: public publication: Zeitschrift für Angewandte Mathematik und Physik volume: 60 number: 3 pagerange: 511-528 refereed: TRUE issn: 0044-2275 hoa_compliant: 304 hoa_date_pub: 2008-07-02 hoa_exclude: FALSE citation: Destrade, M., Ogden, R.W. and Saccomandi, G.
