Abstract

The Love waves concentrated near the surface of an anisotropic elastic body are studied. A uniform asymptotics of the wave field is constructed with the use of the nonstationary caustic expansion (Yu. A. Kravtsov's ansatz) in the form of a space-time ray series. Using three types of waves, which propagate along any direction in an elastic medium, as a vector basis, sufficient conditions for the existence of a nonzero asymptotic solution of the problem under study are obtained. The procedure for constructing asymptotic series is illustrated with the model of a transversely isotropic medium. Bibliography: 9 titles.
