TL;DR: In this paper, a unified variational approach is derived for elastic wave propagation in infinite and semi-infinite stratified media involving anomalous layers, and accurate approximations to the transition matrix which appears in the so-called amplification problem in earthquake engineering are provided.
Abstract: Summary. A unified variational approach is derived for elastic wave propagation in infinite and semi-infinite stratified media involving anomalous layers. As a specific application we provide accurate approximations to the transition matrix which appears in the so-called amplification problem in earthquake engineering.
