Surface Waves on an Isotropic Viscoelastic Half-Space: The Method of Generalized Rays

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Springer Series on Wave Phenomena ((SSWAV,volume 7))

Abstract

The surface motions of an elastic and isotropic half-space produced by a localized source were studied by LAMB /1/ in a classic paper. The comprehensive survey of the literature on the Lamb problem can be found in EWING et al. /2/ and MIKLOWITZ /3/.
