Abstract

The solutions for two-dimensional diffracting objects with simple geometry such as a cylindrical inclusion are frequently used as benchmark solutions to test the accuracy of numerical schemes, such as the Finite Elements Method and the Boundary Elements Method, and to better understand the wave propagation around inclusions. The importance of having benchmark solutions available is greater in the case of the evaluation of three-dimensional scattered fields, given its increase in complexity. In this work, analytical-numerical solutions are used to evaluate the three-dimensional wave field elicited by monopole sources in the vicinity of a fluid-filled cylindrical cavity drilled through an unbounded homogeneous elastic medium. This model is used to assess the effects of the position of the source and receiver, on the propagation of both axisymmetric and nonaxisymmetric wave modes. Both frequency versus axial-wave number responses and time-domain transients are presented.
