Method of calculating the acoustical wave reflection coefficient from a not-sharp boundary of two media by Marek HAGEL

“…Changes in the physical properties of the transient layer, determined by the changes in its material parameters, occur along its thickness and can by described by arbitrary one-variable functions. Results of theoretical calculations of the reflection coefficient were given for chosen cases of material parameter changes in the transient layer and they were compared with results of measurements conducted on a physical model. …”
