Abstract
An infinite medium consisting of two semi-infinite half-spaces in welded contact is considered. The half-space in which the plane harmonic attenuating P- or SV-wave is incident, is assumed to be a linearly viscoelastic solid. The second half-space, in which the waves are transmitted, is assumed to be a liquid-saturated porous solid. The amplitude and energy ratios for the different reflected and refracted waves have been calculated theoretically. Numerical values of the amplitudes and energy ratios have been computed and plotted against the angle of incidence for (i) the linear viscoelastic and liquid-saturated porous isotropic elastic solid interface, and (ii) the linear viscoelastic and dry sandstone interface
