Abstract
A numerical formulation is presented for the analysis of two-dimensional layered elastic media. A generalized image method is introduced in order to obtain the elastic responses in the layered domain to a point source disturbance. The numerical implementation of the fundamental solution in the boundary integral equation is then presented. An illustrative example involving a uniformly pressured cylindrical cavity in a two-layer half-space is considered and numerical results are compared to known solutions.
