N2  - In the passage of elastic waves through a cylindrical rod, phenomena are exhibited that closely resemble those occurring in an electromagnetic waveguide. Following a discussion of the classical Pochhammer-Chree theory for an infinite cylinder, elastic wave propagation in a finite rod is considered under conditions ~hen the rod may be regarded as analogous to an electrical transmission line. In the case of a resonant system, normal mode analysis provides a simplified treatment and it is shown that the results are in agreement with transmission-line theory. A brief discussion is given regarding the identity of the pulse response of a system and its response to continuous waves.
