    Abstract This paper presents a strategy for using the Method of Fundamental Solutions (MFS) to model the propagation of elastic waves around thin structures, like empty cracks or thin rigid screens, located in a homogeneous elastic medium. The authors make use of a simple approach for modeling these propagation conditions using the MFS together with decomposition of the domain into distinct regions. This approach makes it possible to avoid the undetermined system of equations that arises from imposing boundary conditions at both sides of a thin structure. The numerical implementation of the MFS is performed in… More >
