چکیده
AbstractIn the present paper the problem of propagation of Rayleigh waves due to a finite rigid barrier in a shallow ocean has been analyzed. The reflected, transmitted and scattered waves have been obtained by fourier transformation and Wiener-Hopf technique. Numerical computations for the amplitude of the scattered and the reflected waves have been made versus the wave number. It has been done by taking the barriers of different sizes. The scattered waves behave as a decaying cylindrical wave at distant points. The amplitude of the reflected and the scattered waves falls off rapidly as the wave number increases slowly.

In this work, the problem of Rayleigh wave propagation is considered in the context of the theory of thermoelastic diffusion. The formulation is applied to a homogeneous isotropic thermoelastic half space with mass diffusion at the stress free, isothermal, isoconcentrated boundary. Using the potential functions and harmonic wave solution, three coupled dilatational waves and a shear wave is obt...

This paper deals with the propagation of magneto-thermo Rayleigh waves in a homogeneous viscoelastic half-space under initial stress. It has been observed that velocity of Rayleigh waves depends on viscosity, magnetic field, temperature and initial stress of the half-space. The frequency equation for Rayleigh waves under the effect of magnetic field, stress and temperature for both viscoelastic...
