Abstract

This paper derives analytical expressions for the far-field surface waves and body waves generated by a point traction on a semi-infinite, transversely isotropic solid. the closed-form expressions are also analytically and numerically checked with the related problem for isotropic media. Slowness and wave-front curves and decay behavior of the surface wavrik are plotted for magnesium, cobalt, and a composite.
