Abstract

Propagation of Rayleigh waves in non-homogeneous elastic half-space of orthotropic material under initial compression and influence of gravity

M. Sethi, K. C. Gupta, Rajan Sharma and Dinesh Malik

The aim of the present paper is to investigate the propagation of surface waves in a non-homogeneous, orthotropic elastic solid medium under the influence of initial compression and gravity. The wave velocity equation has been obtained. When the gravity field and non-homogeneity of the material medium vanishes, the medium is isotropic and unstressed, the frequency equation is in complete agreement with the corresponding classical results
