Abstract
The paper investigates the existence of Love wave propagation in an initially stressed homogeneous layer over a porous half-space with irregular boundary surfaces. The method of separation of variables has been adopted to get an analytical solution for the dispersion equation and thus dispersion equations have been obtained in several particular cases. Propagation of Love wave is influenced by initial stress parameters, corrugation parameter and porosity of half-space. Velocity of Love waves have been plotted in several figures to study the effect of various parameters and found that the velocity of wave decreases with increases of non-dimensional wave number. It has been observed that the phase velocity decreases with increase of initial stress parameters and porosity of half-space.
