EFFECT OF INITIAL STRESSES ON INCIDENT qSV-WAVES IN PRE-STRESSED ELASTIC HALF-SPACES
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 March 2012
Abstract
The effect of initial stresses on incident quasi SV-waves at a plane interface between two dissimilar pre-stressed elastic half-spaces is investigated. The reflection and refraction coefficients of the reflected and refracted qSV- and qP-waves are derived with the help of appropriate boundary conditions. The coefficients are found to be functions of the angle of incidence and the initial stresses and incremental elastic parameters of the pre-stressed elastic half-spaces.
