REVIEW ON ELASTIC WAVE PROPAGATION UNDER COMPLEX INTERFACE (INTERFACE LAYER) CONDITIONS4

Interfaces (or interface layers), which exist widely in various materials and structures, have different forms. The wave propagation under various interface conditions is of both theoretical and practical importance. This paper reviews the current development of the investigations on the wave propagation with complex interface models such as the perfectly bonded interfaces, weakly bonded interfaces (or interface layers) and contacting interfaces, etc. The discussion is focused on the establishment of the in...
