In our recent paper [1], it was acknowledged that computations of Rayleigh wave reflection and transmission coefficients reported in our previous paper [2] were inaccurate for wedges larger than 180 β’ . Here we would like to disclose the technical cause of that error. Errors in [2] were introduced
The steady-state problem of scattering of an incident Rayleigh wave by an elastic wedge whose angle is less than 180 β’ is considered. The problem is reduced to the numerical solution of a pair of Fredholm integral equations of the second kind whose kernels are continuous functions. Numerical results
Fields scattered by a lossy dielectric wedge for a plane-wa¨e incidence are calculated. Reflected and refracted fields are obtained by inhomogeneous plane-wa¨e tracing in a lossy medium, while the edgediffracted fields of the physical-optics approximation are accurately corrected by adding the multi
