Popis: Theoretical and simulation studies are carried out to study the propagation characteristics of Scholte waves in non-horizontal underwater interface of shallow sea. The dispersion and polarization characteristics of Scholte waves in horizontal layered underwater interface are analyzed by using wave theory and staggered grid finite difference method. The effectiveness of the method used in this paper is proved from the perspective of theory and simulation. The propagation characteristics and polarization characteristics of Scholte waves in non-horizontal underwater interface are also analyzed. At the wedge-shaped underwater interface, the particle trajectory of Scholte wave is related to the angle between the propagation direction and the underwater interface, and with the increase of the angle, the deflection angle of the particle trajectory increases. At the bulged underwater interface, the particle trajectory of seismic wave has nothing to do with the propagation direction and the bulged underwater interface, but the bulged underwater interface has a great influence on the amplitude of seismic wave. The research results are of great significance to underwater target detection and geological exploration.
