Abstract :
An analytical expression for a Rayleigh wave propagating along the surface of a nonhomogenous elastic body (the cases of anisotropic medium and of isotropic medium) of arbitrary shape is obtained using the boundary layer method. The transport equations give possibility to obtain a formula for the amplitude of the wave and the ones for Berry phase.
