We discuss the effects of vertical gravity force on wave propagation when a material is intermediate between solid and fluid, especially we focus on what kinds of phase are generated and how it propagates on the surface. We introduce gravity terms into the 2D linear finite element method in order to account for the contribution from the gravity. Numerical simulations are conducted for a half-space model and a two-layered, single horizontal layer overlain on a half-space, model. Both models are compared between the results including and excluding the viscosity. The fastest phase propagating from a surface point source, a leaking Rayleigh wave for usual elastic material, is transformed into an interesting phase including some common features to the gravity wave when the gravity effect becomes significant. The viscosity does not affect the fastest phases, whereas it affects other latter phases appearing only for the two-layered model. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
