Abstract
Recently, Khajiyeva
. (2018) studied the dynamics of surface wave propagation in a pre-stressed incompressible half-space when accompanied by both vertical and tangential loads. In this study, however, we extend the work of Khajiyeva
. to include the presence of a coating layer above the half-space, upon which the loads are acted. Moreover, we prescribe sufficient perfect continuity conditions between the two layers, resulting in an inhomogeneous composite structure. Furthermore, related effective boundary conditions within the long-wave assumption are acquired for the model through the application of the asymptotic approximation method. Finally, approximate uncoupled pseudo-differential equations are derived on the surface, thereby admitting all the results of Khajiyeva
. as limiting cases of concern.
