摘要

It is shown that the plane-wave assumption for incident SH waves is a good approximation for cylindrical waves radiated from a finite source even when it is as close as twice the size of inhomogeneity. It is concluded that for out-of-plane SH waves the plane-wave approximation should be adequate for many earthquake engineering studies.
