SV-wave with external force in saturated medium

There are past researches done for SV-wave with the absence of external force. This work aims to investigate the influence of external force in the propagation of SV-wave in the soluble and insoluble mediums. Isotropic wave model is derived for SV-wave with various forces in accordance to Duhamel Principle and their analytical solutions are used to compare with each other�s� amplitudes. With the existence of high density fluid, diffusive waves with larger external force will induce higher amplitude. However, SV-waves are non-diffusive in low density medium and hence, this work concludes that wave diffusion by external force is subjected to the properties of the targeted medium. © 2016 Penerbit UTM Press.
