Abstract
A formula for the surface impedance tensors of orthorhombic aggregates of cubic crystallites is given explicitly in terms of the material constants and the texture coefficients. The surface impedance tensor is a Hermitian second-order tensor which, for a homogeneous elastic half-space, maps the displacements given at the surface to the tractions needed to sustain them. This tensor plays a fundamental role in Stroh's formalism for anisotropic elasticity. In this paper we account for the effects of crystallographic texture only up to terms linear in the texture coefficients and give an explicit formula for the terms in the surface impedance tensor up to those linear in the texture coefficients.
