Abstract
This article aims to investigate the effect of material surface stress on the propagation of Love waves in a rotating, homogeneous, initially stressed orthotropic elastic solid with impedance-type boundary conditions. For deriving Love waves, the basic equations are solved with the help of the traditional wave solution method. Secular equations about Love waves are computed as a function of surface stress, rotation, and initial stress. The effects of initial compression and surface stress have been discussed numerically using MATLAB for a particular model.
