Combined with the coordinate transformation, the dynamic governing equations for elastic foundation under a moving load are established by using the reverberation ray matrix method, and the isolation effect of a graded wave impeding block is studied. The displacement and the stress are obtained in the time domain by using numerical inverse Fourier transformation. Via numerical examples, the effectiveness of vibration isolation of graded wave impeding block is compared to conventional single phase solid homogenous wave impeding block. The results show that compared with the single phase solid homogenous wave impeding block isolation system, the graded wave impeding block can effectively reduce the vibration amplitude and has more advantages and is effective under a moving load.
