The asymmetric problem of rocking rotation of a circular rigid disk embedded in a finite depth of a transversely isotropic half-space is analytically addressed. The rigid disk is assumed to be in frictionless contact with the elastic half-space. By virtue of appropriate Green's functions, the mixed boundary value problem is written as a dual integral equation. Employing further mathematical tec...

Dispersion of Love waves is studied in a fibre-reinforced layer resting on monoclinic half-space. The wave velocity equation has been obtained for a fiber-reinforced layer resting on monoclinic half space. Shear wave velocity ratio curve for Love waves has been shown graphically for fibre reinforced material layer resting on various monoclinic half-spaces. In a similar way, shear wave velocity ...

We consider the anti-plane shear waves in a domain consisting of an infinite layer with thin coating lying on elastic half-space. The properties coating, layer, and half-space are assumed to be different. On free upper surface we assume compatibility condition within Gurtin–Murdoch elasticity, whereas at plane interface perfect contact. For this problem there exist two possible regimes related ...
