Scattering of plane SH-waves on semi-canyon topography of arbitrary shape with linging in anisotropic media

The purpose of this paper is to use the conforma mapping method1]to analyzeand evaluate the ground displacement and scattering of incident SH-waves, on thesurface of semi-canyon topography of arbitrary shape with lining in anisotropic media.The problem to be solved can be reduced to the solution of an infinite algebraicequation set by using the method of full-space expansion of Fourier progression Usingthe mapping function and scattering theory to solve problems due to semi-canyon topography with lining is just like mapping the semi-cylindrical canyon of arbitraryshape into a cylindrical canyon in full-space.Moreover,it is far practical inengineering practice.From the computational examples,it is obvious that the variation of displacement amplitudes on the surface near the canyon topography is rather sharp. especially when the freqencies of incident SH-waves increase.
