Abstract
A wave expansion technique is presented for the analysis of scattered and diffracted plane SH-waves by two-dimensional inhomogeneities. Comparison of this approximate method with exact series solutions suggests that the proposed method may become a useful tool in predicting the local site amplification patterns in earthquake engineering applications which deal with the estimation of site specific spectra and in the problems involving earthquake response of long structures with multiple supports.
