This paper describes a study of the resonance phenomenon of a 2-D alluvial valley embedded in a half-space and subjected to an incident plane SH wave. The scattered wave and refracted wave are expressed as a series of basis functions, and both the scattered and refracted coefficients can be related to the incident wave by the so-called T-matrix method. By using singular-value decomposition and sol...
