Abstract. The present study is concerned with the reflection and transmission of plane waves at an imperfect interface between two different fluid saturated porous half spaces. The expression for the reflection and transmission coefficients which are the ratios of the amplitude of reflected and transmitted waves to the amplitude of incident waves are obtained for an imperfect boundary and deduced for normal stiffness, transverse stiffness. The variations of amplitude ratios with angle of incidence are depicted graphically. A particular case of reflection at the free surface in fluid saturated porous half spaces has been deduced and discussed. A special case of interest has also been deduced from the present investigation. It is found that amplitude ratios of the reflected and transmitted waves are affected by the stiffness of the media. 1. Introduction

The dynamic response of porous media is of great interest in various areas such as geophysics, soil-mechanics, civil engineering, petroleum engineering and environmental engineering. As most of the modem engineering structures are generally made up of multiphase porous continuum, the classical theory, which represents a fluid saturated porous medium as a single phase material, is inadequate to represent the mechanical behavior of such materials especially when the pores are filled with liquid. In this context the solid and liquid phases have different motions. Due to these different motions and different material properties and the complicated geometry of pore structures; the mechanical behavior of a fluid saturated porous medium is very complex and difficult. So from time to time, researchers have tried to overcome this difficulty and considerable work has been done in this regard.

Based on the work of von Terzaghi [1, 2], Biot [3] proposed a general theory of three-dimensional consolidation. Taking the compressibility of the soil into consideration, the water contained in the pores was taken to be incompressible. Biot [4, 5] developed the theory for the propagation of stress waves in porous elastic solids containing a compressible viscous fluid and demonstrated the existence of two types of compressional waves (a fast and a slow wave) along with one shear wave. Biot's model was broadly accepted and some of his results have been taken as standard references and the basis for subsequent analysis in acoustic, geophysics and other such fields.

Based on the work of Fillunger model [6] (which is further based on the concept of volume fractions combined with surface porosity coefficients), Bowen [7] and De Boer and

Ehlers [8, 9] developed and used another interesting theory in which all the constituents of a porous medium are assumed to be incompressible. There are reasonable grounds for the assumption that the constituents of many fluid saturated porous media are incompressible. For example, taking the composition of soil, the solid constituents are incompressible and liquid constituents, which are generally water or oils are also incompressible. Moreover in an empty porous solid as a case of classical theory, the change in the volume is due to the changes in porosity during the propagation of longitudinal waves. The assumption of incompressible constituents does not only meet the properties appearing in many branches of engineering practice, but it also avoids the introduction of many complicated material parameters as considered in the Biot theory. So this model meets the requirements of further scientific developments. Based on this theory de Boer and Ehlers [10] and recently, Kumar and Hundal [11-15] studied some problems of wave propagation in fluid saturated incompressible porous media.

In the study of propagation of seismic waves in liquid saturated porous solids, problem of reflection of seismic waves is useful both for its seismological interest and geophysical exploration such as hydrocarbons prospecting, ground water prospecting or mineral prospecting. Employing Biot’s theory, reflection of waves at free permeable boundary was studied by Deresiewicz [16] and Malla Reddy and Tajuddin [17]. Expression for reflection coefficients were obtained but neither numerical work was carried out nor discussed. Kumar and Deswal [18] studied the reflection of waves in micro-polar liquid-saturated porous solid for a free boundary and calculated only reflection coefficients. Tomar and Singh [19] studied the problem of transmission of longitudinal waves through a plane interface between two dissimilar porous elastic solid half spaces. Tomar and Arora [20] investigated the reflection and transmission of elastic waves at an elastic / porous solid saturated by two immiscible fluids. Tajuddin and Hussaini [21] studied the reflection of plane waves at boundaries of a liquid filled poroelastic half- space. However, no attempt has been made to study the problem of reflection and transmission of plane waves at the imperfect interface between two fluid saturated incompressible porous media.

Imperfect bounding considered in the present investigation is to mean that the stress components are continuous and small displacement field is not. The small vector difference in the displacement is assumed to depend linearly on the traction vector. Significant work has been done to describe the physical conditions on the interface by different mechanical boundary conditions by different investigators. Notable among them are Jones and Whitter [22], Murthy [23], Nayfeh and Nasar [24], Rokhlin et al. [25], Rokhlin [26].

In the present investigation, we studied the reflection and transmission of plane waves at an imperfect interface between two fluid saturated incompressible porous half spaces and deduced different cases. 2. Basic equations

Following De Boer and Ehlers [9], the equations governing the deformation of an incompressible porous medium saturated with non-viscous fluid in the absence of body forces are

where i iu , u , ui i = F,S denote the displacement, velocities and acceleration of fluid and solid

phases respectively and p is the effective pore pressure of the incompressible pore fluid; s and F are the densities of the solid and fluid respectively; S

ET is the stress in the solid phase and SE is the linearized langrangian strain tensor; s and s are the macroscopic Lame’s parameters of the porous solid and s and F are the volume fractions satisfying

where FR is the effective specific weight of the fluid and FK is the Darcy’s permeabilitbility coefficient of the porous medium. 3. Formulation of the problem We consider two fluid saturated incompressible porous half spaces being in contact with each other at the plane surface which we designate as plane z = 0 of rectangular Cartesian coordinate system OXYZ. The Z- axis is taken downward pointing into the medium.

For two dimensional problem, we assume the displacement vector iu (i=F, S) as

iu =( ,0,iu iw ), where i=F,S. (6) Using equation (6) in equations (1) - (3) we obtain the following equations for fluid saturated incompressible porous medium as:

This gives the velocity of the longitudinal wave propagating in an incompressible empty porous solid where the change in volume is due to the change in porosity and well known result of the classical theory of elasticity .In an incompressible non porous solid F 0, then (13) becomes 1C = 0 and physically acceptable as longitudinal wave cannot propagate in an incompressible medium.

4. Reflection and transmission of the waves

We consider a plane waves propagating through a medium 1M which we designate as the region Z > 0 and incident at the plane z = 0 and making an angle 0 with normal to the surface. Corresponding to each incident wave (longitudinal / transverse wave) we get two reflected waves in the medium 1M and two transmitted waves in medium 2M . We write all the variables without bar in the region Z > 0 (medium 1M ) and attach a bar to denote the variables in the region Z0 (medium 2M ) as shown in the Fig. 1 (Geometry of the problem). 1B M2 1A

where the upper sign correspond to the incident wave and lower sign correspond to the reflected wave. 5. Boundary conditions

We have considered two fluid saturated incompressible porous half spaces .Imperfect bounding considered here mean that the traction is continuous across the interface but the small displacements are assumed to depend linearly on the traction vector. Boundary conditions at the interface z = 0 are:

In view of (21) we assume the values of FSFS ,,, and p satisfying the boundary conditions for medium M1 and M2 as:

Medium M1:

{ ,, FS p} = {1, m1, m2}[A01 exp{i k1 (x sin 0 - z cos 0 ) – i 1 t }+ A1 exp{i k1 (x sin 1 +

7. Numerical results and discussion

With the view of illustrating the theoretical results and for numerical discussion we take a model for which the values of the various physical parameters are taken from De Boer and Ehlers [10] as follows:

S = 0.67, F = 0.33, S =1.34 Mg / 3m , F 0.33 Mg / 3m ,

S = 5.5833 MN / 2m , FK = 0.01m /s, FR = 10.00KN / 3m , S = 8.3750 MN/ 2m ,

S = 0.6, F = 0.4, S =2.0 Mg / 3m , F 0.01 Mg / 3m , S = 4.2368 MN / 2m ,

FK = 0.02 m /s, FR = 9.00KN / 3m , S = 3.3272 MN/ 2m , e =2.65Mg / 3m ,

e = 2.238 MN / 2m , e = 2.238 MN / 2m .

A computer program has been developed and amplitude ratios of various reflected and transmitted waves has been computed. The variations of amplitude ratios for fluid saturated porous half spaces with stiffness (ST), with normal stiffness (NS) and with tangential stiffness (TS) have been shown by solid line, long dashed line and small dashed lines respectively. Solid lines without central symbols correspond to the case of fluid saturated porous half space (FS) whereas Solid lines with central symbols correspond to the case of elastic half space (ES).

The variations of amplitude ratios iZ (i = 1, 2, 3, 4) for ST, NS, and TS with angle of incidence for longitudinal wave (LW) and transverse wave (TW) are shown graphically in Figs. 1-8. Figures 9 -12 show the variations of amplitude ratios iZ (i = 1, 2) for longitudinal waves (LW) and transverse waves (TW) at the free surface .

8. Conclusions

The analytic expressions of the amplitude ratios for various reflected and transmitted waves are obtained for an imperfect boundary between two different fluid saturated porous half spaces. Different types of special cases have been deduced and discussed. It is concluded that imperfect boundary and porosity have significant effect on amplitude ratios. The model presented in this paper is one of the more realistic forms of the earth models. It may be of some use in seismology, engineering and geophysics etc. References
