The scattering of SH-wave caused by the subsurface circular cavities in an elastic half-space covered with an elastic layer was discussed, which was based on the complex function method ,wave functions expansion method and big circular arc postulation method in which the circular boundary of large radius was used to approximate straight boundary of surface elastic layer. By the theory of Helmholtz, the general solution of the Biot’s wave function was achieved. Utilizing the complex series expansion technology and the boundary conditions, we could transform the present problem into the problem in which we needed to solve the infinite linear algebraic equations with unknown coefficients in wave functions. Finally, the dynamic stress concentration factors around the circular cavities were discussed in numerical examples.

The dynamic stress concentration on quadratic and U-shaped cavities in half space, which are similar to the cross-section of the tunnels, is solved in this paper impacted by SH-wave. The analytical solution for the cavity in elastic half space is gained by the complex function method. In the complex plane, the scattering wave which satisfies the zero-stress condition at the horizontal surface can be constructed, the problem can be inverted into a set of algebraic equations to solve coefficients of the constructed scattering wave by least square method. For the earthquake-resistance researches, the numerical examples of the dynamic stress concentration around the quadratic and U-shaped cavities impacted by SH-wave are given. The influences of the dynamic stress concentration by the incident wave number and angle, the depth and shape of the cavity are discussed. It is showed that the interaction among the wave, the surface and the shallow buried tunnels should be cared in half space. In this situation, the dynamic stress concentration around the tunnel is greater obvious than the whole space.

The paper presents solutions of two contact problems for the annular plate die on an elastic half-space under the action of axisymmetrically applied force and moment. Such problems usually arise in the calculation of rigid foundations with the sole of the annular shape in chimneys, cooling towers, water towers and other high-rise buildings on the wind load and the load from its own weight. Both problems are formulated in the form of triple integral equations, which are reduced to one integral equation by the method of substitution. In the case of the axisymmetric problem, the kernel of the integral equation depends on the product of three Bessel functions. Using the formula to represent two Bessel functions in the form of a double row on the works of hypergeometric functions Bessel function, the problem reduces to a functional equation that connects the movement of the stamp with the unknown coefficients of the distribution of contact stresses. The resulting functional equation is reduced to an infinite system of linear algebraic equations, which is solved by truncation. Under the action of a moment on the annular plate  die, the distribution of contact stresses is searched as a series by the products of the Legendre attached functions with a weight corresponding to the features in the contact stresses at the die edges. Using the spectral G. Ya. Popov ratio for the ring plate, the problem is again reduced to an infinite system of linear algebraic equations, which is also solved by the truncation method. Two examples of calculations for an annular plate die on an elastic half-space on the action of axisymmetrically applied force and moment are given. A comparison of the results of calculations on the proposed approach with the results for the round stamp and for the annular  stamp with the solutions of other authors is made.

The scattering field of SH-wave in a half-space with a semi-cylindrical hill and a subsurface horizontal hole is studied in the present research by utilizing a complex function and the moving-coordinate method. Based on the concept of ‘conjunction,’ the domain considered is divided into two subdomains. The first subdomain is a cylindrical one which includes the surface of the hill, while the rest is the second subdomain. In the cylindrical subdomain, a standing wave function is constructed which automatically satisfies the zero-stress condition at the hill surface and arbitrary-stress condition at the other part of the circular subdomain. For the second subdomain, which contains a semi-cylindrical canyon and a subsurface hole, a scattering wave function is assumed, which satisfies the zero-stress condition on the horizontal surface. By employing the moving-coordinate method, the solutions of the mathematical model established for the SH-wave can be obtained with the satisfaction of the continuous conditions of stress and displacement across the junction interface together with the zero-stress condition at the surface of the tunnel. The solutions such obtained consist of a series of infinite linear algebraic equations, which can be solved numerically with consideration of the first finite terms corresponding to the frequencies of the wave. For demonstrating the application of the model developed, the displacements of the horizontal and semi-cylindrical hill surfaces are quantified with different properties of wave and geometry parameters.

A general theorem is established which relates the resulting forces, acting on a set of arbitrary punches, with their generalized displacements through a system of linear algebraic equations. The theorem is applied to the case of arbitrarily located elliptical punches. Several specific examples are considered.

This research intends to investigate the scattering field of SH-wave in a half-space containing a semicylindrical hill and a subsurface horizontal hole. A mathematical model is established in a two-dimensional plane on the basis of the characteristics of SH-waves, the ‘division-conjunction’ concept, the complex function, and moving-coordinate methods. The whole domain considered is divided into two subdomains, and the wave expressions are assumed in each subdomain. In the cylindrical subdomain, the wave function is constructed with the satisfaction of the zero-stress condition on the hill's surface automatically. In the other subdomain, the solution of the scattering waves is postulated under the stress-free condition on the horizontal surface. The analytical solutions of themodel established are obtained through a series of infinite linear algebraic equations, under the conditions that both the stress and displacement across the conjunction interface of the two subdomains are continuous. The numerical solutions are developed by truncating the infinite linear algebraic equations. The numerical simulations are performed for quantifying the displacements of the horizontal and semicylindrical hill surfaces subjected to incident SH waves, and the numerical results are verified with a comparison to the existing results of a case without subsurface hole.

The surface displacement of a circular lining structure and multiple cracks in an elastic half space by incident SH-wave is studied in this paper based on the methods of Green's function, complex function and multi-polar coordinates. Firstly, we construct a suitable Green’s function which indicates a fundamental solution to the displacement field for an elastic half space possessing a circular lining structure and cracks while bearing out-plane harmonic line loads at arbitrary point. Then using the method of crack-division, a crack is created. Thus expressions of displacement and stress field are established at the existence of the structure and the cracks. Finally, the interaction of inclusion and two cracks is chosen as numerical examples and the influences of different parameters on the surface displacement are discussed.
