Abstract: | In this paper we present six field-reciprocity relations, and an additional six power-reciprocity relations for the far-zone scattered field if time-harmonic plane elastic waves are incident upon an obstacle in a half space. The incident waves are successively selected as to be either a P-wave, a SV-wave or a Rayleigh surface wave, each propagating in a prescribed direction. In the derivations we employ an explicit integral representation for the far-zone scattered field amplitude. The latter is obtained by expanding the half-space Green's displacement tensor in the far-zone region. Then, starting with the general Betti-Rayleigh theorem, the reciprocity identities are systematically inferred by inspection. We also present energy-conservation relations due to a single incident P-, SV- or Rayleigh wave. |
