Abstract

The scattering of harmonic transverse waves is studied in a layered solid half-space which is prestressed and electrically biased. Electromechanic modes propagating normally to the stratification planes are analyzed using a wave-splitting method and a sufficient condition is derived for the existence of the solution. The invariant imbedding technique is employed to obtain a differential equation for the reflectivity matrix. This equation is exploited to formulate the inverse problem whose solution is presented in an iterative form. A useful result is then established about the convergence of the series so determined.
