Abstract:
A simple transformation in the independent variable makes it possible to obtain power series solutions of the stress equations of motion of elasticity for inhomogeneous elastic media whose refractive indices are represented by the Epstein profiles. Graphs of reflection and transmission coefficients versus angles of incidence are presented for different frequencies in the case of incident P as well as incident SV waves for some profiles.
