    Using integral transforms and transfer matrices, the author studies basic equations for a transversally isotropic homogeneous thick layer in the states of plane and axisymmetric strain. The procedure for an arbitrarily laminated layer is shortly discussed, and a suitable homogenization is carried out in the periodically laminated case. As an example, the author derives exact closed-form solutions for a periodically layered half-space. A comparison with some published results is presented.
