Abstract
|
We investigate the reflection and transmission
of SH-waves at a corrugated interface between two
different anisotropic, heterogeneous elastic
solid half-spaces. Both the media are assumed to
be transversely isotropic and vertically
heterogeneous. Rayleigh's method is followed and
expressions for the reflection and transmission
coefficients are obtained in closed form for the
first-order approximation of the corrugation. It
is found that these coefficients depend on
corrugation and are affected by the anisotropy
and heterogeneity of the media. Numerical
computations for a particular model have been
performed.
