ABSTRACTIn this paper, the Rayleigh wave propagation is investigated in rotating half-space of incompressible monoclinic elastic materials which are subjected to the impedance boundary conditions. In particular, the explicit secular equation of the Rayleigh wave is obtained. The main objective of this paper is to illustrate the dependence of dimensionless speed of Rayleigh wave on rotation, anisotropy and impedance parameters. An algorithm in MATLAB software is developed to solve the secular equation of Rayleigh wave. The speed of Rayleigh wave is plotted against rotation, anisotropy and impedance parameters.
