It is now understood that seismic anisotropy is a comparatively common phenomenon in sedimentary layers. The elastic properties of most sedimentary rocks have been shown to be anisotropic. (Anisotropy means that the physical property of the material is a function of the measuring direction). Seismologists are generally concerned with velocity variation with the direction of propagation.

Much of the earth’s crust appears to have some degree of elastic anisotropy (Crampin, 1981; Crampin and Lovell, 1991; Helbig, 1993). The phenomena of elastic wave propagation in anisotropic media are more complex than those in isotropic media. Shear‐wave propagation in an orthorhombic physical model is most complex when the direction of the wave is close to the neighborhood of the cusp on the group velocity surfaces (Brown et al., 1991). The first identification of singularities in wave propagation through sedimentary basins occurred in the examination of shear‐wave splitting in multioffset vertical seismic profiles (VSPs) at a borehole site in the Paris Basin (Bush and Crampin, 1991), where large variations in shear‐wave polarizations in propagation directions close to point singularities were observed. Computation of synthetic seismograms for layer sequences showed that the shear‐wave polarizations and amplitudes were irregular near point singularities (Crampin, 1991).

The title of this paper was incorrect. The title should be, “A physical model study of shear wave propagation in transversely isotropic solid.”
