Scattering of SH-waves by a Griffith crack in a long strip at asymmetric position.
The displacement field caused by the classic earthquake mechanism model consisting of a slip along the fault is extended to the case when besides the slip, also an opening occurs caused by tensional forces. The tensor matrix describing the moment tensor does not necessarily have a nil trace. The direct problem is solved finding the radiation pattern for and waves. A method to solve the inverse problem of the determination of the four parameters describing the source is presented and tested on...
A second axially-symmetric initial-boundary value problem of linear homogeneous isotropic micropolar elastodynamics in which the displacement and rotation take the forms , ((r,θ,z) are cylindrical coordinates; cf. [17]) is formulated in a pure stress language similar to that of [12]. In particular, it is shown how and can be recovered from a solution of the associated pure stress initial-boundary value problem, and how a singular solution corresponding to harmonic vibrations of a concentrated...
According to a thermodynamic theory proposed by G. Grioli, we consider the problem of determining the solutions for the growth of acceleration waves in an elastic body. At first we determine a property of the velocities of waves propagation and we determine some limitations for the free energy; then we resolve the above mentioned problem for the «small» waves working on the iperacceleration waves.

In this paper we study waves propagation along a traction free surface of a infinite body composed of two different thermoelastic isotropic half-spaces in welded contact.
