Abstract :

In the present investigation the reflection and transmission phenomenon of plane waves between two half spaces elastic and orthotropic piezothermoelastic with two-temperature theory is discussed. A piezothermoelastic solid half space is assumed to be loaded with an elastic half space. Due to the phenomenon, four qausi waves are obtained; quasi longitudinal (qP) wave, quasi transverse (qS) wave, quasi thermal (qT) wave and electric potential wave (eP). It is found that the amplitude ratios of various reflected and refracted waves are functions of angle of incidence, frequency of incident wave and are influenced by the piezothermoelastic properties of media. The energy ratios are computed numerically using amplitude ratios for a particular model of graphite and cadmium selenide (CdSe). The variations of energy ratios with angle of incidence are shown graphically depicting the effect of two-temperature. The conservation of energy across the interface is justified. A particular case of interest is also deduced from the present investigation.
