Wave Screening Effectiveness of Infilled Trenches
방진벽의 표면가 산란효과
Abstract
An analytical method is developed to study the propagation of surface waves across infilled trenches. The Green's function technique is used to estimate the reflection and transmission coefficients of Rayleigh waves across a semi-infinite plate inserted between two homogeneous quarter-spaces. After validating the method against experimental data, influence of the material contrast and the angle of incidence on the screening effectiveness of an infilled trench is examined.
