Reflection and refraction of flexural waves at geometric boundaries.
We present a theory of flexural wave propagation on elastic shells having nontrivial geometry and develop an analogy to geometric optics. The transport of momentum within the shell itself is anisotropic due to the curvature, and as such complex classical effects such as birefringence are generically found. We determine the equations of reflection and refraction of such waves at boundaries betwe...
متن کاملReflection and Transmission of Plane Waves at Micropolar Piezothermoelastic Solids
The present investigation analysis a problem of reflection and transmission at an interface of two micropolar orthotropic piezothermoelastic media. The basic equations and constitutive relations for micropolar orthotropic piezothermoelastic media for G-L theory are derived. The expressions for amplitude ratios corresponding to reflected and transmitted waves are derived analytically. The eff...
متن کاملReflection of low-frequency equatorial waves at arbitrary western boundaries
Procedures are developed for calculating effects of western boundaries of arbitrary geometry on low-frequency equatorial waves. We show that the mass flux incident at the coast is all returned eastward by equatorial Kelvin waves. Short Rossby waves generated as part of the reflection serve only to redistribute mass along the coast. For the case of a uniformly sloping coast we present formulae a...
متن کاملWave Reflection and Refraction at the Interface of Triclinic and Liquid Medium
A Mathematical model has been considered to study the reflection and refraction phenomenon of plane wave at the interface of an isotropic liquid medium and a triclinic (anisotropic) half-space. The incident plane qP wave generates three types of reflected waves namely quasi-P (qP), quasi-SV (qSV) and quasi-SH (qSH) waves in the tric...
متن کاملReflection and Refraction of Generalized Visco-Thermoelastic Waves at an Interface Between Two Half Spaces
Abstract The reflection and refraction due to generalized thermoelastic incident Pand SVwaves at a plane interface between two dissimilar half spaces of visco-thermoelasitic materials have been investigated. Magnitude of coefficient ratios for both the cases of Pand SVwaves have been found out. Several graphs have been drawn to study the nature of variation of the amplitude ratios when the angl...
