Problems of elastic wave propagation, especially the ones of Rayleighwave propagration, are the foundation of various practical applications
in science and technology
Elastic surface waves, discovered by Rayleigh more than 120 yearsago for compressible isotropic elastic solids, have been studied exten-sively and exploited in a wide range of applications in seismology, acous-tics, geophysics, telecommunications industry and materials science, forexample It would not be far-fetched to say that Rayleigh’s study ofsurface waves upon an elastic half-space has had fundamental and far-reaching effects upon modern life and many things that we take forgranted today, stretching from mobile phones through to the study ofearthquakes, as addressed by Adams et al A huge number of investiga-tions have been devoted to this topic As written in, one of the biggestscientific search engines Google.Scholar returns more than a millionlinks for request "Rayleigh waves" and almost 3 millions for "Surfacewaves" This data is really amazing! It shows a tremendous scale ofscientific and industrial interests in this area

ap-of thin films deposited on half-spaces before and during loading is ap-ofimportance and of great necessaries Note that there exists an interna-tional journal named “Thin Solid Films” which is for publishing newresearch results in the fileld of thin solid films For non-destructivelyevaluating the mechanical properties of materials, the Rayleigh wave is
a convenient tool When using the Rayleigh wave for non-destructivelyevaluating, its explicit dispersion relations are employed as theoreticalbases for extracting the mechanical properties of the thin films fromexperimental data
Nowadays, composite materials, especially the ones with fibers, arewidely used in various fields of science and industry, such as the man-ufacture of automobiles, the manufacture of aircrafts, the manufacture
of ships In order to manufacture a ship shell, for example, thinfiber/epoxy layers with different fiber-directions are attached periodi-cally to each other, up to a given thickness The ship shell can be there-
