Review text

In the paper, as originated by \textit{V. D. Kupradze} [e.g.: Trends in applications of pure mathematics to mechanics, Vol. 2, Collect. Pap. present. Symp. Kozubnik/Poland 1977, 176-186 (1979; Zbl 0421.73009)], a generalized stress tensor is introduced and plays a central role in considering two-dimensional scattering of elastic waves by inhomogeneous obstacles. The main goal is to obtain approximation techniques which are amenable to numerical implementation. For time-harmonic problems a coupling procedure involving finite elements and boundary integral equations is described and analyzed. For general time-dependent problems, artificial boundary methods are studied, i.e. artificial boundary conditions are defined and their dissipative effectiveness is investigated. On the whole, some interesting problem solutions are presented by proving their existence and uniqueness, but, a numerical example demonstrating the numerical effectivity of the proposed procedures is missing.
