Abstract
A technique of complex analysis is employed to show that the secular equation for Rayleigh waves in viscoelastic half-spaces always admits only one complex root. This solution corresponds to an admissible surface wave which is the counterpart of the well-known elastic Rayleigh wave and exists for arbitrary values of the viscoelastic moduli.
