Abstract
An approximate method has been used to calculate the Green function of the layered site with canyon, and further to analyze the lateral and transverse response of pipeline laid over the canyon induced by Love and Rayleigh waves. The adaptation of the method has also been discussed. From the results obtained we can see that seismic response of the pipeline laid over the canyon can be much larger than that without canyon.
