The evolution of a vertically polarized plane transverse wave (SV-wave) propagating in a nonlinear elastic medium is analyzed. The deformation process is described by the Murnaghan model, where the cubic nonlinearity is taken into account. Two approximate approaches are used and the solutions of the corresponding nonlinear wave equations are found for the first two approximations. Numerical examples are shown and commented
