โฆ Synopsis
An analytical-numerical examination has been made of the behavior of harmonic Rayleigh-type waves in a compressible elastic half-space of constant density and whose shear modulus increases linearly with depth. The dispersion law is presented for values of Poisson's ratio of 1/2, 1/3 and 1/4 for wide ranges of degree of inhomogeneity.

The paper studies the propagation of Rayleigh waves in an incompressible layer with general variation of rigidity as p = po(l + bz)" resting over a homogeneous incompressible elastic half-space. Instead of using the Whittaker function, the expansion formula proposed by Newlands3 has been used for be
