Description
Summary:Surface effect due to incident plane surface horizontal waves through anisotropic elastic materials is studied. Mathematical formulation over the modeled earth's alluvial valley is transformed into integral equations. These integral equations altogether with the boundary condition and continuity equation are then solved numerically. The solution of these amplification effects over the half circular inhomogeneous alluvial valley are shown graphically. Keywords- surface effect; surface horizontal wave; inhomoge neous anisotropic materials
