In "Schaum`s College Physics Outline" by Bueche & Hecht on page 214 is
written:
"Standing Waves:....These might better not be called waves at all since
they do not transport energy and momentum."


I hope my question was not interpretted to imply that standing waves
transport energy and momentum.

Thanks for the page number.
