Elastodynamics of a half-space coated by a thin soft layer with a clamped upper face is
considered. The focus is on the analysis of localized waves that do not exist on a clamped …

We consider a periodic array of resonators, formed from Euler–Bernoulli beams, attached to
the surface of an elastic half-space. Earlier studies of such systems have concentrated on …

Near-surface resonance phenomena often arise in semi-infinite solids. For instance, when a
moving load with a speed v close to the surface wave speed v R is applied to the surface of …

This paper is concerned with the Rayleigh wave dispersion in an incompressible
functionally graded orthotropic half-space loaded by a thin fluid-saturated aeolotropic …

Metasurfaces are devices employing the notion of resonance to transform seismic surface
waves into body waves, thereby protecting the subwavelength structures. Using …

Rayleigh surface wave motion in a homogeneous orthotropic elastic solid half-space under
time-harmonic sources is theoretically investigated. In this article, closed-form expressions of …

The paper deals with elastic wave propagating in a layer on a half-space induced by a
vertical force. The focus is on the effect of a sliding contact along the interface and its …

Motivated by the unexpected appearance of shear horizontal Rayleigh surface waves, we
investigate the mechanics of antiplane wave reflection and propagation in couple stress …

We derive a second-order correction to an existing leading-order model for surface waves in
linear elasticity. The same hyperbolic–elliptic equation form is obtained with a correction …

The paper is concerned with development of the asymptotic formulation for surface wave
field induced by vertical surface stress under the effect of gravity in the short-wave region …
