Abstract: | Summary In this paper the problem of a point source of stress moving over the surface of a thick aelotropic plate resting of a rigid foundation has been considered. Following the method ofAleksandrov & Vorovich (1960) the stress componentsZx andZz have been expanded in series of ascending powers of 1/h when the source velocity is less than (c44/)1/2. When the velocity exceeds (c44/)1/2 it has been shown that two cracks are produced in different directions and their successive reflections at the upper and lower surface are also obtained. |
