VIBRATION AMPLITUDE of reflected & transmitted- refracted waves The amplitde of vibration of the reflected and refracted waves in -D problems, is compted based on stress eqilibrim and strain compatibility (continity) at the interface. In this case, the amplitde is also a fnction of the angle of wave incidence.

Observe that, since tan(*) mst be a real nmber, the following condition mst be satisfied for the previos eqation to have a real soltion: S < LOVE < S In other words, LOVE waves are not possible nless the srface layer is softer than the nderlying medim (i.e. S < S ). ωh tan S G G S S «Dispersion» relationship Graphic variation of the ( LOVE ω) relationship s s Grond displacement variation with depth 0 ω GEORGE BOUKOVALAS, National Technical University of Athes, Greece, 0 3.

Implications: The propagation velocity LOVE decreases with increasing freqency ω (decreasing period Τ). This means that the low-freqency components of the ecitation get separated from the high-freqency components, as they propagate faster. As a reslt: The dration of shaking increases with distance from the sorce The freqency content of the motion (e.g. the elastic response spectrm) changes with distance from the sorce GEORGE BOUKOVALAS, National Technical University of Athes, Greece, 0 3.
