It is well known that an elastic homogeneous half-space does not allow torsional surface waves to propagate. The present paper attempts to find out the possibility of propagation of such waves in a viscoelastic half-space. The study reveals that although the homogeneous elastic half-space does not

This work presents a numerical algorithm for solving crack scattering in a transversely isotropic medium whose symmetry axis is perpendicular to the crack surface. The crack is modelled as boundary discontinuities in the displacement u and the particle velocity v, of the stresses [ u# v], where the
A one-dimensional method to predict the acoustic waves generated by a rapid thermal expansion in a multilayer viscoelastic body (rod or plate) is presented. In particular, the method can predict the acoustic waves generated by microwave irradiation. The temperature rise in each layer is assumed to b
