Abstract
The paper deals with the phenomena of reflection and refraction of plane elastic waves at a plane interface between two semi-infinite elastic solid media in contact, when both the media are initially stressed. It has been shown analytically that both reflected and refracted P and SV waves depend on initial stresses present in the media. The numerical values of reflection and refraction coefficients for different initial stresses and the angle of incidence have been calculated by computer and the results are given in the form of graphs. Many results are found in the paper which are not seen in initially stress-free media.
