A Dynamic Green’s Function for the Homogeneous Viscoelastic and Isotropic Half-Space
摘要
A dynamic 3D Green’s function for the homogeneous, isotropic and viscoelastic (of the Zener type) half-space is derived in a closed form. The results obtained here can be used as either stand-alone solutions for simple problems or in conjunction with a boundary integral equation formulations to account for complex boundary conditions. In the later case, mesh-reducing boundary element formulations can be constructed as an alternative method for numerical implementation purposes.
