Due to the structure anisotropy existed in the tetragonal crystal,the acoustic property also exhibits obvious anisotro-py when sound spreads in tetragonal solids.Based on the stress-strain method,we propose a series of strains that can be em-ployed to calculate the elastic constants of tetragonal crystals.More importantly,it is realistic and feasible to determine quanti-tatively the anisotropy of sound velocity ...
