Abstract

This paper presents dynamic fundamental solutions of a transversely isotropic poroelastic half-plane. Biot’s poroelastodynamics equations under plane-strain conditions are solved by employing Fourier integral transforms, and explicit analytical solutions are obtained from boundary value-problems corresponding to time-harmonic buried loads and fluid sources. The accuracy of present solutions is verified with existing solutions, and numerical results are presented to portray the influence of anisotropic properties on dynamic response of the half-plane under applied traction and fluid loading. The application of present solutions is also demonstrated in the analysis of dynamic interaction between a rigid strip and a transversely isotropic poroelastic half-plane.
