Abstract

The simplest model of a shallow sea in the form of an isovelocity water layer and a fluid sediment layer overlying a homogeneous elastic halfspace is used to investigate the effect of the thickness of the sediment layer and the sound velocity in it on the behavior of the frequency dependences of the amplitudes of trapped and leaky modes and shear and longitudinal lateral waves that are excited by an acoustic point source in a shallow-water oceanic waveguide.
