The Rayleigh equation has real coefficients; therefore,
also the case of complex conjugated roots may be explained physically.
The Author proves t h a t the Somigliana waves may be formed for Poisson
ratio values until 0.30543; for gradually less rigid media, they are missing
altogether and degenerate into evanescent waves
