Abstract Hansen's expansion is used to derive integral expressions for the displacement field due to a localized buried source of the mth order in a layered half space. The dipolar case (m ≦ 2) is worked out in detail for arbitrary source-depth in the layer and in the substratum. A new type of representation of the source is used which gives the final results in a concise form. Explicit expressions for the displacements at the free surface are obtained for a center of explosion, a vertical strike-slip fault and a vertical dip-slip fault. The results for a horizontal thrust are found to be the same as for a vertical dip-slip fault. The relations between the Galerkin vector and the biharmonic eigenvectors are clarified. It is shown that the Galerkin-Boussinesq solution for the elastic half space cannot be extended to structures of higher complexity, except for a few simple sources. On the other hand, the Hansen Solution is valid for a wide class of sources and structures. Both dynamic and static regimes are considered.

The Impact

The efficiency of virtual cross sections method and MELS (Magneto Elastic Layered Systems) hypotheses application is shown on model problem about distribution of wave field in thin surface layers of waveguide when plane wave signal is propagating in it. The impact of surface non-smoothness on characteristics of propagation of high-frequency horizontally polarized wave signal in isotropic elastic half-space is studied. It is shown that the non-smoothness leads to strong distortion of the wave signal over the waveguide thickness and along wave signal propagation direction as well.  Numerical comparative analysis of change in amplitude and phase characteristics of obtained wave fields against roughness of weakly inhomogeneous surface of homogeneous elastic half-space surface is done by classical method and by proposed approach for different kind of non-smoothness.
