TL;DR: In this article, the dispersion equation of phase velocity is derived for Love wave propagation in a non-homogeneous substrate over an initially stressed heterogeneous half-space and the velocities of Love waves are calculated numerically as a function of kH and presented in a number of graphs, where k is the wave number, and H is the thickness of the layer.

TL;DR: In this paper, the propagation of Love wave in a piezoelectric layer overlying an inhomogeneous half-space was studied, and the numerical values of the dimensionless phase velocities were calculated and presented graphically to illustrate the effects of inhomogeneity, piezolectricity and dielectric constants.

TL;DR: In this paper, the velocity of SH-type wave in homogeneous isotropic medium sandwiched between two semi-infinite media has been studied and the dispersion equation of phase velocity has been derived.

TL;DR: In this article, the existence of Love wave propagation in an initially stressed homogeneous layer over a porous half-space with irregular boundary surfaces was investigated and it was observed that the phase velocity decreases with increase of initial stress parameters and porosity of half space.

TL;DR: The dispersion equation obtained is in agreement with the classical result of Love wave when the initial stresses and inhomogeneity parameters are neglected and shows that theInitial stresses have a pronounced influence on the propagation of torsional surface waves.
