Effective and ef cient modelling of in nite media is important for
the production of accurate and useful solutions for many scienti c
and engineering problems invo- ing in nite domains (Bettess 1977,
1980; Chow and Smith 1981; Medina and Taylor 1983; Zhang and Zhao
1987; Zhao et al. 1989; Zhao and Valliappan 1993a, b, c, d; Astley
1996, 1998; Yang et al. 1996; Yang and Huang 2001; Yun et al. 2000,
2007; Wang et al. 2006). Some typical examples involving in nite
domains are as follows: (1) earthquake wave propagation within the
upper crust of the Earth in the elds of geophysics and seismology;
(2) dynamic structure-foundation interaction in the elds of
geotechnical, civil and dam engineering; and (3) transient pore-
uid ow, heat transfer and mass transport within the interior of the
Earth in the elds of g- science and geoenvironmental engineering.
Although the solid Earth is viewed as a bounded domain at the
terrestrial scale, it can be treated as an unbounded domain at the
human scale. For instance, in the case of predicting possible
property damages caused by an earthquake, only a limited region
around the epicentre is of interest because the earthquake wave
energy is signi cantly reduced as the distance from the epicentre
is increased.
