Fundamental Solutions In Elastodynamics: A Compendium

Synopsis

This work is a compilation of fundamental solutions (or Green's functions) for classical or canonical problems in elastodynamics, presented with a common format and notation. These formulas describe the displacements and stresses elicited by transient and harmonic sources in solid elastic media such as full spaces, half-spaces, and strata and plates in both two and three dimensions, using the three major coordinate systems (Cartesian, cylindrical, and spherical).
