Matrix theory of elastic wave scattering: application to scattering of transverse waves

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5362738
New calculations of elastic wave scattering using Visscher's matrix theory have been made for transverse waves incident on axially symmetric defects. Longitudinal incident waves have also been considered with the results in agreement with those obtained previously by Visscher. A number of interesting features for incident transverse waves will be presented as well as some of the practical aspects of the calculation (e.g. convergence, accuracy, and computer time).
