| Abstract: | The problem of the propagation and interaction of longitudinal waves in a rod struck by a rigid mass is considered. A numerical computer solution is obtained for the case when the mechanical behavior of the rod material is expressed by a rectangular relaxation spectrum. A numerical method of integral transform inversion is developed and applied to problems of polymer dynamics.Institute of Polymer Mechanics, Academy of Sciences of the Latvian SSR, Riga.
