“…The problem can be studied by analytical methods (Lee and Cao, 1989;Cao and Lee, 1990;Trifunac, 1973;Liang et al, 2006) or numerical methods (Vogt et al, 1988;Wong, 1982;Dravinski and Mossessian, 1987;Sainchez-Sesma and Campillo, 1991;Kawase, 1988;Liao, 2002). Analytical methods are essential for exploring the physical nature of special problems; however, numerical methods have advantages in solving problems with complex boundary conditions.…”
