Abstract
The results obtained in Part I ( Soil Dynam. Earth. Engng, 1996, 15, 119-27) of this work for modelling harmonic wave propagation through viscoelastic heterogeneous media that exhibit a small random fluctuation of their material properties about mean values are now used here to investigate SH wave propagation in two naturally occurring media, namely sandstone and topsoil. These results are in the form of depth dependent, deterministic mean values and non-isotropic covariances for both the wave speed profile in the medium and for the fundamental solution in terms of displacement due to a unit point source. The results are also compared against conventional Monte Carlo simulations.
