The present problem is a precise approach for the investigation of Love type waves propagation in a new geometric scheme, which consist a dry sandy layer resting over an isotropic elastic half-space. An analytical approach has been used to derive secular equation for the propagation of Love type waves. Dispersion equation for Love type waves is derived in the given geometry by considering that upper dry sandy layer is imperfectly bonded to lower isotropic half-space. The effects of various parameters such as sandiness parameter, imperfect interface and thickness of the layer are presented on the propagation of Love type waves through graphical representations.
