Abstract
With the help of the decline method, a computer-aided analysis program of Christoffel equation is described which makes it possible to calculate elastic constants and viscous constants of any crystals precisely and easily. The elastic constants of LiNbO3 and Bi2GeO20 crystal are calculated with Apple-II computer with the Fortran program which we suggested before, and the calculated figures are compared with values obtained by others.
