Abstract
The present paper is concerned with the study of propagation of torsional waves in an inhomogeneous isotropic layer whose material properties vary harmonically with a space variable, lying over a semi-infinite inhomogeneous isotropic half-space. The closed form solutions for the displacement in the layer and half-space are obtained separately. The dimensionless phase velocity has been plotted against dimensionless wave number and scaled wave number for different values of inhomogeneity parameters. The effects of inhomogeneity have been shown in the dispersion curves using 2D and 3D plot.
