Abstract: Wave processes that occur in an elastic layer when waves traveling in it are diffracted by a system of horizontal cracks are investigated. Integral representations of wave fields are constructed in terms of the convolution of Green’s matrices and unknown jumps of displacements at the cracks. The displacement jumps are determined from the boundary integral equations, which are obtained from the initial boundary-value problem with the boundary conditions at crack faces being satisfied. The spectrum of the integral operator is studied for different variants of mutual crack arrangement and is compared with the spectrum of the corresponding operators for individual cracks; the relationship between the spectrum and the blocking effects is analyzed. The possibility of obtaining an extended frequency band of waveguide blocking in the case of groups of cracks is demonstrated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
