Abstract

A study is made of the propagation of waves in a viscoelastic solid from a Heaviside step function plane source (plane waves) and from a Heaviside step function point source (spherical waves). The work is based on solutions of a normalized form of the Stokes wave equation, and the displacements are expressed in terms of finite integrals which are readily evaluated by numerical quadrature. A comparison is made with the work of Ricker, and with earlier work of the present author.
