Summary
In this note the disturbances in an infinite viscoelastic medium ofViogt type with a spherical cavity have been considered. The problem has been solved separately for (1) transient radial forces and (2) transient twist acting on the inner spherical surface of the cavity. Exact solutions have been obtained in both cases.
