Surface motion of a layered medium having an irregular interface due to incident plane SH waves
Keiiti Aki,Kenneth L. Larner +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the elastic wave field in a layer-over-half-space medium with an irregular interface was calculated for the M discontinuity, and the results were compared with those derived from the flat layer theory and from the ray theory.

Dynamic response of 3‐D rigid surface foundations by time domain boundary element method
TL;DR: In this paper, the dynamic response of three-dimensional rigid surface foundations of arbitrary shape is numerically obtained by placing the foundations on a linear elastic, isotropic and homogeneous half-space representing the soil medium and are subjected to either external dynamic forces or seismic waves of various kinds and directions.

Effects of canyon topography on strong ground motion
H. L. Wong,Paul C. Jennings +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the two-dimensional scattering and diffraction of SH waves of arbitrary angle of incidence from irregular, canyon-shaped topography is formulated in terms of an integral equation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamic stress concentration studies by boundary integrals and Laplace transform
TL;DR: In this paper, the Laplace transform with respect to time is applied to the governing equations of motion and formulating and solving the problem numerically in the transfomed domain by the boundary integral equation method.

The Numerical Solution of Certain Integral Equations with Non-Integrable Kernels Arising in the Theory of Crack Propagation and Elastic Wave Diffraction
TL;DR: In this paper, an integral equation on the area of the crack for the relative displacement across the crack is presented. But the kernel of this integral equation is non-integrable and a method for discretizing it and a numerical method of solution is carried out.
