Abstract

The two-dimensional wave front emitted by a circular impulsive source in a transversely isotropic elastic solid is analyzed with respect to its geometric shape. It is found that the concept of slowness curve, previously used to explain features of a point source wave front, can be generalized so as to include a circular source. This generalized slowness curve is time-dependent.
