Summary
ApplyingWiener-Hopf techniques the diffraction ofSH-waves originating from a moving point source due to the presence of a step change in the elevation of the surface of a homogeneous half-space have been obtained. An interesting feature of resonance associated with the motion of a load at a velocityv 0 −1 approachingv 0 −1 has been observed.
