The effect of time dependent body forces on the propagation of Love wave motion in an orthotropic elastic half space is considered in this paper. The surface displacement component is obtained in a closed form for special type of crystals. Numerical results are obtained for a particular case of time dependent body force at different distances from the source for the different values of the non-dimensional time. The results are shown graphically.

Abstract


The effect of time dependent body forces on the propagation of Love wave motion in an orthotropic elastic half space is considered in this paper. The surface displacement component is obtained in a closed form for special type of crystals. Numerical results are obtained for a particular case of time dependent body force at different distances from the source for the different values of the non-dimensional time. The results are shown graphically.
