Abstract
A numerical method based on integration along bicharacteristics is presente d for analysing two-dimensional stress wave propagation problem in layered orthotropic plates. This method is an extension of the method proposed by C lifton for isotropic plane problem. The numerical stability is discussed. T he method is applied to simulate stress wave propagation in a semi-infinite plate composed of two different orthotropic materials.
