Surface Waves Propagating Along the Free Surface of a Semi-infinite Elastic Medium of Variable Density and Elasticity. (Part 3)

A Computer Program for the Computation of Love Wave Dispersion on the Homogeneous Multilayered Media

Abstract

This is a note on the program for Bendix G-15D computer prepared by F. Press and H. Takeuchi to calculate Love wave dispersion using Haskell's matrix iteration method. By this program the phase and group velocities are obtained corresponding to a specified wave length of Love wave on up to 39 homogeneous solid layers lying on a homogeneous solid half-space.
