Abstract

The present paper is devoted to the study of propagation of plane waves in micropolar thermodiffusion elastic half-space in the context of generalized theories of thermoelasticity. The variations of amplitude ratios for plane waves (longitudinal wave, thermal wave and mass diffusive wave) are computed analytically and depicted graphically for longitudinal wave against the angle of incidence. The impact of relaxation times, micropolarity and diffusion have been studied. Some particular cases of interest are also deduced from the present investigation.
