Abstract
AbstractThe propagation of Rayleigh waves in a half-space and the propagation of Love waves in a welded layer and half-space are examined when initial tensile or compressive stresses are present. Using the perturbed and linearized equations of elasticity, which include the effects of initial stress, a modified Rayleigh equation and a modified Love equation are obtained. The solution of the equations shows a dramatic change in the phase speeds of the two wave types under initial tension or compression. Numerical results are presented.
