Abstract
We derive formulas for the coefficients of the scattering matrix of the stack of anisotropic elastic and fluid layers by combining delta-operator technique and reflectivity method. This technology is relevant due to the progress in high-performance computation on graphics cards for a general purpose (GPU). The delta-operator technique requires many multiplications of the high-order matrices. The matrix multiplications are divided on the large number of independent subtasks. This allows us to perform calculations in parallel way using many blocks of graphics card without significant increase of the processing time.
