Reection and refraction of plane waves at the interface between magnetoelectroelastic and liquid media

Abstract

This paper analyzes the reflection and refraction of plane wave incidences at the interface between magnetoelectroelastic (MEE) and liquid media. The MEE medium is assumed to be transversely isotropic and the liquid medium to be nonviscous. Three cases, i.e., the coupled quasipressure wave incidence from the MEE medium, the coupled quasi-shear vertical wave incidence from the MEE medium, and the pressure wave incidence from the liquid medium, are discussed. The expressions of reflection and transmission coefficients varying with the incident angle are obtained. This investigation would be useful to the MEE acoustic device field.
