Abstract
The problem of scattering of a point-generated elastic dyadic field by a bounded obstacle or a penetrable body in two dimensions is considered. The direct scattering problem for each case is formulated in a dyadic form. For two point sources, dyadic far-field pattern generators are defined and general scattering theorems and mixed scattering relations are presented. The direct scattering problem for a rigid circular disc is considered, and the exact Green function and the elastic far-field patterns of the radiating solution in the form of infinite series are obtained. Under the low-frequency assumption, approximations for the longitudinal and transverse far-field patterns of the scattered field are obtained, in addition to an asymptotic expansion for the corresponding scattering cross-section. A simple inversion scheme that locates the radius and the position of a rigid circular disc, which is based on a closed-form approximation of the scattered field at the location of the incident point source, is proposed.
