English abstract:
An analytical simulation of the seismic field is presented for a wedge-shaped alluvial layer overlying a rock basement (a dipping structure). Time domain responses, illustrating essential features of seismic propagation in a three-dimensional (3-D) alluvial wedge, are evaluated at receivers located down-dip, cross-slope, and up-dip of a point source located within the wedge. This simulation of the field is adequate in that it accounts for seismic penetration of the bottom characteristic for a real rock, but it is intrinsically unable to include contributions from the S-phases of the field typically present in a real alluvial ground.
