Abstract

The propagation of harmonic waves along the interface of an initially stressed, compressible layer and a viscous, compressible fluid half-space is investigated. A dispersion relation that does not depend on the form of the elastic potential is derived on the basis of the three-dimensional linearized elasticity equations for elastic bodies with uniform initial deformations and on the linearized Navier-Stokes equations for a viscous Newtonian fluid at rest. The phase velocities and attenuation coefficients of the elastic modes are determined numerically as functions of the thickness of the elastic layer using a Murnaghan-type three-invariant elastic potential.
