Generation of SH-type waves in layered anisotropic elastic media

A study is made of the generation of SH-type waves at the free surface of a layered anisotropic elastic medium due to an impulsive stress discontinuity moving with uniform velocity along the interface of the layered medium. The exact solution for the displacement function is obtained by the Laplace...
