Abstract: | We obtain an inner and an outer estimates of wave front sets and analytic wave front sets of the Riemann function of elastic interface problems by using the localization method due to Wakabayashi. In our problem the outer estimate of wave front sets and analytic wave front sets of the Riemann function coincides with the inner estimate of those. The strong point of our results is to catch the lateral wave as well as the incident, the reflected, and the refracted waves. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. |
