Summary A study is made of the generation of SH-type waves at the free surface of a layered anisotropic elastic medium due to a stress discontinuity moving with non-uniform velocity along the interface of the layered half-space. The exact solution for the displacement function is obtained by the Laplace and Fourier transforms method combined with the modified Cagniard method. Solution is discussed on the basis of ray theory. Formations of different wave pattern are also illustrated with figures. Some special cases are also derived.
