Rayleigh Waves on an Exponentially Graded Poroelastic Half Space
Source abstract
Abstract
In this paper we consider the propagation of seismic waves in isotropic poroelastic half spaces with continuously varying elastic properties, namely with an exponentially decaying depth profile. The present paper shows that the problem leads naturally to a bicubic equation. We obtain explicit inhomogeneous plane wave solutions in an exponential evanescent form with respect to the depth of half space. Further, these solutions are used to solve the boundary value problem of a Rayleigh surface wave and the secular equation is established. The results obtained theoretically are exemplified for numerical data and represented graphically for a representative poroelastic material.
