内容説明

This title deals with the application of boundary element technology to the study of scattering of seismic waves from irregular topographies and buried valleys. The author presents numerical refinements that allow the practical computation of two- and three-dimensional problems and then proves that these are accurate and efficient when compared with presently available solutions. The refinements are then applied to reproduce amplifications observed in the Mexico City Valley.
