Love Wave Dispersion in an Inhomogeneous Earth’s Crust Lying Over a Pre-stressed Inhomogeneous Mantle
Study has been made on the propagation of Love wave in a non-homogeneous anisotropic substratum over an initially stressed non-homogeneous isotropic half space. The rigidities and density vary exponentially for the upper layer, whereas the rigidity, density and initial stress vary as a product of two exponential function for the lower half space. The displacements for both the media have been calculated analytically, and the closed form dispersion equation has been derived using suitable boundary conditions. Numerical simulations have been performed, and graphs have been plotted to classify the impact of inhomogeneity parameters on phase velocity. The study may help in different areas of science and engineering for better understanding of the wave phenomenon, especially in refining our knowledge of crustal and sub-crustal region near the earth surface.
