Transformation (reflection and transmission) of sound and electromagnetic waves are considered in non-stationary media, properties of which abruptly change in time. Reflection and transmission coefficients for both amplitudes and intensities of sound and electromagnetic waves are obtained. Quantitative relations between the reflection and transmission coefficients for both sound and electromagnetic waves are given. The sum of the energy flux reflection and transmission coefficients for both types of waves is not equal to one (for sound waves it is greater than one). The energy of both waves is not conserved, that is, exchange of the energy occurs between the corresponding waves and medium. As a result, the sound wave obtains a notable property: the transmitting wave carries energy equal to the sum of the energies of the incident and reflected waves. A possibility of the amplification of sound waves and transformation of their frequencies is illustrated.

The reflection and transmission coefficients for an electromagnetic beam propagating in an inhomogeneous plasma are calculated analytically using the Magnus approximation in different physical configurations. The theoretical predictions for such coefficients are expressed in simple analytical form, and are compared with the exact results obtained by numerical solution of the wave propagation equations, using the Berreman 4 × 4 matrix method. It is shown that the theoretical approach is able to reproduce the correct results for reflection and transmission coefficients over a wide range of physical parameters. The accuracy of the theoretical analysis, at different orders of approximation, is also discussed.

Reflection and transmission coefficients of plane waves with oblique incidence to a multilayered system of piezomagnetic and/or piezoelectric materials are investigated in this paper. The general Christoffel equation is derived from the coupled constitutive and balance equations, which is further employed to solve the elastic displacements and electric and magnetic potentials. Based on these solutions, the reflection and transmission coefficients in the corresponding layered structures are subsequently obtained by virtue of the propagator matrix method. Two layered examples are selected to verify and illustrate our solutions. One is the purely elastic layered system composed of aluminum and organic glass materials. The other layered system is composed of the novel magnetoelectroelastic material and the organic glass. Numerical results are presented to demonstrate the variation of the reflection and transmission coefficients with different incident angles, frequencies, and boundary conditions, which could be useful to nondestructive evaluation of this novel material structure based on wave propagations.

A modified Nicholson – Ross – Weir method was used to determine complex parameters and dielectric permittivity of ceramic materials in the range 78.33–118.1 GHz. The measuring equipment is a meter of complex reflection and transmission coefficients, a waveguide measuring canal with a special measuring cell, consisting of two irregular waveguides and a waveguide chamber between them, which provides insignificant influence of higher-order modes. The dependences of the amplitude and phase of the reflection and transmission coefficients on frequency were obtained experimentally for fluoroplastic and three ceramic samples in the frequency range 78.33–118.1 GHz. The obtained S-parameters are processed according to an algorithm that includes their averaging based on the Fourier transform in order to obtain the values of the dielectric permittivity. Fluoroplastic was used as a reference material with a known dielectric constant. The dielectric constant of fluoroplastic has a stable value of 2.1 in the above mentioned frequency range. The dielectric constant of sample No. 1 varies from 3.6 to 2.5 at the boundaries of the range, sample No. 2 – from 3.7 to 2.1, sample No. 3 – from 2.9 to 1.5. The experimental data are in satisfactory agreement with the literature data for other frequencies taking into account the limits set by the measurement uncertainty.
