Wave Motion is a peer-reviewed scientific journal publishing papers on the physics of waves – with emphasis on the areas of acoustics, optics, geophysics, seismology, electromagnetic theory, solid and fluid mechanics. Original research articles on analytical, numerical and experimental aspects of wave motion are covered.

Since the journal's establishment in 1979, the editor in chief has been Jan D. Achenbach.[1] In 2011, Andrew N. Norris joined as co-editor in chief, and in 2012 he took over as the sole editor in chief of Jan Achenbach. The journal is published by Elsevier.
