Abstract :
The propagation of shear-horizontal (SH) waves is studied for a functionally gradient magnetoelectric (ME) material. The material properties of the ME half-space are normal to the free surface. The ME open conditions are applied to the free surface. Dispersion relations are obtained in explicit form for different forms of the nonhomogeneities.
