The present study investigates the propagation of Love wave in a void layer resting over a sandy half space under the effect of gravitational force. The equations of motion have been gathered separately for different layers, and the boundary conditions have been introduced for two different layers at their interface. The mathematical analysis of the problem has been dealt with the help of Whittaker’s function by expanding it asymptotically up to linear terms. The study reveals that in such a situation there exist two different wave fronts for the two abovementioned layers: one is for the effects of gravity and sandy parameters, whereas other is for the effect of void parameter.
