Summary

Transmission and reflexion of plane acoustic waves through a longitudinal shock wave in elastic isotropic solids are investigated. As a result, the amplitude of the transmitted and reflected waves and the jump of the acceleration of the shock are explicitly determined.

Résumé

On envisage la transmission et la réflexion d'une onde acoustique plane par une onde de choc longitudinale dans les solides élastiques isotropes. On détermine explicitement l'amplitude des ondes transmises et réflechies et le saut de l'acceleration du choc.
