Source of a time-harmonic SH wave in a cylindrically orthotropic elastic solid

Abstract

The time harmonic response to a point SH-wave source in a cylindrically orthotropic elastic solid is considered and some closed-form Green functions are obtained for special values of the rigidity ratio (√(μo/μr)). An integral representation formula, a key formula for the solution method, for a product of Bessel and Hankel functions with non-integer order is also presented.
