Propagation of Torsional Surface Waves in a Nonhomogeneous Half-Space With Circular Irregularity in Free Surface

The present paper studies the effect of circular regularity on propagation of torsional surface waves in an elastic non-homogeneous half-space. Both rigidity and density of the half-space are assumed to vary inversely linearly with depth. Separation of variable method has been used to get the analyt...
