The effect of boundaries on wave propagation in a liquid-filled porous solid: V. Transmission across a plane interface

Abstract

The passage of plane body waves across a plane interface from one to another, contiguous, porous aggregate is examined, with particular attention paid to motions involving wave lengths large in comparison with cross-sectional pore dimensions. The results are obtained for a rather general set of boundary conditions which take account of possible resistance to flow due to partial nonalignment of pores at the interface. It is found that when certain conditions of equality of material constants for the two media are met one or more of the reflected and transmitted waves are extinguished.
