AbstractThe problem of reflection and transmission of plane waves at an imperfect boundary between two thermally conducting micropolar elastic solid half spaces with two temperature is investigated. Amplitude ratio of various reflected and transmitted waves are presented when a set of coupled longitudinal wave (LD-wave) and thermal wave (T-wave) and a set of coupled transverse wave and microrotation waves (CDI, CDII) is made incident. The expressions for reflection and transmission coefficients which are the ratios of the amplitudes of reflected and transmitted waves at different angles of incident wave are obtained. The corresponding expressions for the normal force stiffness, transverse force stiffness, transverse couple stiffness and perfect bonding has also been included. Stiffness and two temperature e ects on these amplitude ratios with angle of incidence have been depicted graphically. Some special and particular cases are also discussed.

The reflection of plane waves at the free surface of thermally conducting micropolar elastic medium with two temperatures is studied. The theory of thermoelasticity with and without energy dissipation is used to investigate the problem. The expressions for amplitudes ratios of reflected waves at different angles of incident wave are obtained. Dissipation of energy and two-temperature effects on these amplitude ratios with angle of incidence are depicted graphically. Some special and particular cases are also deduced.

The present work is concerned with the study of reflection and transmission phenomena of dilatational waves at a plane interface between a microstretch elastic solid half-space and a microstretch liquid half-space. Eringen's theory of micro-continuum materials has been employed for addressing the mathematical analysis. Reflection and transmission coefficients, corresponding to various reflected and transmitted waves, have been obtained when a plane dilatational wave strikes obliquely at the interface after propagating through the solid half-space. It is found that the reflection and transmission coefficients are functions of the angle of incidence, the frequency of the incident wave and the elastic properties of the half-spaces. Numerical calculations have been carried out for a specific model by taking an aluminum matrix with randomly distributed epoxy spheres as the microstretch solid medium, while the microstretch fluid is taken arbitrarily with suitably chosen elastic parameters. The computed results obtained have been depicted graphically. The results of earlier studies have been deduced from the present formulation as special cases.

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.

Two applications are made of the reflection and transmission coefficients reported in the preceding paper. These concern the effect of the angle of incidence upon the fraction of incident energy returning to the surface, and the effect of velocity stratification upon the energy return.

The governing equations for generalized thermoelasticity of a mixture of an elastic solid and a Newtonian fluid are formulated in the context of Lord-Shulman and Green-Lindsay theories of generalized thermoelasticity. These equations are solved to show the existence of three coupled longitudinal waves and two coupled transverse waves, which are dispersive in nature. Reflection from a thermally insulated stress-free surface is considered for incidence of coupled longitudinal wave. The speeds and reflection coefficients of plane waves are computed numerically for a particular model.

AbstractThe problem of scattering of surface water waves obliquely incident on a fixed half immersed circular cylinder is solved approximately by reducing it to the solution of an integral equation and also by the method of multipoles. For different values of the angle of incidence and the wave number the reflection and transmission coefficients obtained by both methods are evaluated numerically and represented graphically to compare the results obtained by the respective methods.

AbstractThe present article investigates theoretically the refection and transmission through a lossless dielectric slab embedded between two semi−infinite left−handed materials (LHMs) in which the electric permittivity and magnetic permeability are simultaneously negative. The LHM is assumed to be dispersive according to Lorentz as well as Drude medium model. The reflection and transmission coefficients are studied with the angle of incidence, frequency and slab thickness. The effect of the damping frequency is also investigated. It is found that the damping frequency has an insignificant effect on reflected, transmitted and loss powers. Band pass filter is one of the possible applications of the proposed structure.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to study the reflection of plane waves in an initially stressed rotating thermoelastic diffusive medium with micro-concentrations and two-temperature. Design/methodology/approach A two-dimensional model of generalized thermoelasticity is considered. The governing equations are transformed into the non-dimensional forms using the dimensionless variables. Then, potential functions are introduced for the decoupling of the waves. Further, appropriate boundary conditions are assumed to completely solve the problem. Finally, numerical computations are performed using MATLAB. Findings The problem is solved analytically and it is found that there exist five coupled waves in addition to an independent micro-concentration wave in the considered medium. The amplitude ratios and energy ratios of these reflected waves have also been computed numerically for a specific material. Originality/value The modulus values of amplitude ratios are presented graphically to exhibit the effects of angular velocity, initial stress, two-temperature, diffusion and micro-concentration parameters. The expressions of energy ratios obtained in explicit form are also depicted graphically as functions of angle of incidence. The law of conservation of energy at the free surface during reflection phenomenon is also verified.
