Review text

A stochastic response of an elastic 3D half-space to random displacement excitations on the boundary plane is studied. It is derived exact results for the case of white noise excitations which are then used to give convolution representations for the case of general finite correlation length fluctuations of displacements prescribed on the boundary. It turns out that solutions of the mentioned problem are random fields which are horizontally homogeneous but inhomogeneous in the vertical direction. By means of this fact it is explicitly constructed the Karhunen-Loeve series expansion by solving the eigen-value problem for the correlation operator. Simulation results are presented and compared with the exact representations derived for the displacement correlation tensor.
