The velocity of Rayleigh waves along a prestressed semi-infinite medium assuming a two-dimensional anisotropy

The velocity equation for the surface ivavesof the Rayleigh type is derived in the caseof an idealized medium of uniform twodimensionalanisotropy: the elastic constantsare assumed to be everywhere the same buidifferent as far as vertical and horizontaldirections are concerned, and moreover thepossib...
