Notes:
A technique is developed for the numerical analysis of wave motion in layered strata. Semidiscrete particular solutions satisfying inhomogeneous boundary conditions are calculated by the finite element method. These solutions are combined with semidiscrete modes of an appropriate eigenvalue problem. The boundary conditions corresponding to rigid and rough footings on a layered stratum are treated in detail. Applications are considered which demonstrate the validity of the technique.
