摘要

The Rayleigh waves in a layered solid medium is dispersive. Using the "spring"model for a weak interface between two solids, the characteristic equation for the quasi-Rayleigh waves in an isotropic layered solid medium with a weak interface is presented. The numerical results for the typical coating structure with the rigid, slip and weak interface are shown.The influence of the interface stiffness constants on the velocity of the quasi-Rayleigh waves is considered. The numerical results show that the interface characteristics of the coating structure can be nondestructively evaluated by employing the quasi-Rayleigh waves in the low frequency band.
