Abstract
The mean field equation for SH-waves in a random medium, for the distributed linearly varying dynamic load acting across the thickness of the layer, is obtained. Assuming local independence assumption of Bourret, a closed form solution for average displacements and stresses for two-layered viscoelastic half-space is derived. The dimensionless average influence functions, found in this paper, may be used in solving the dynamic soil-structure interaction problems by the boundary element method.
