Problem 3.2a
Derive the Zoeppritz equations for a P-wave incident on a solid/solid interface.
Background
The normal and tangential displacements plus the normal and tangential stresses must be continuous when a P-wave is incident at the angle $ \theta _{1} $ on an interface between two solid media (see problem 2.10).
Solution
We use the functions in equations (3.1b,c,d,e) to represent the displacements of the waves, the positive direction of displacement for the waves being shown in Figure 3.1a. (We omit the factor $ e^{-\mathrm {j} \omega t} $ because the boundary conditions do not depend upon the time $ t $, hence this factor cancels out).
We first derive the equations expressing the continuity of normal and tangential displacements, $ w $ and $ u $. These equations are obtained by resolving the various wave displacements into $ z $- and $ x $-components. Thus,
$ {\begin{aligned}w_{1}&=-A_{0}\cos \theta _{1}e^{\mathrm {j} \omega \zeta _{0}}+A_{1}\cos \theta _{1}e^{\mathrm {j} \omega \zeta _{1}}-B_{1}\sin \delta _{1}e^{\mathrm {j} \omega \zeta _{1}^{\prime }},\end{aligned}} $ ()
$ {\begin{aligned}w_{2}&=\qquad \qquad -A_{2}\cos \theta _{2}e^{\mathrm {j} \omega \zeta _{2}}-B_{2}\sin \delta _{2}e^{\mathrm {j} \omega \zeta _{2}^{\prime }},\end{aligned}} $ ()
$ {\begin{aligned}u_{1}&=A_{0}\sin \theta _{1}e^{\mathrm {j} \omega \zeta _{0}}+A_{1}\sin \theta _{1}e^{\mathrm {j} \omega \zeta _{1}}+B_{1}\cos \delta _{1}e^{\mathrm {j} \omega \zeta _{1}^{\prime }},\end{aligned}} $ ()
$ {\begin{aligned}u_{2}&=\qquad \qquad A_{2}\sin \theta _{2}e^{\mathrm {j} \omega \zeta _{2}}-B_{2}\cos \delta _{2}e^{\mathrm {j} \omega \zeta _{2}^{\prime }}.\end{aligned}} $ ()
At the interface, $ z=0 $ and $ w_{1}=w_{2} $, $ u_{1}=u_{2} $. The exponentials all reduce to $ e^{\mathrm {j} \omega x} $, hence cancel out, and we get for the normal and tangential displacements, respectively,
$ {\begin{aligned}\left(-A_{0}+A_{1}\right)\cos \theta _{1}-B_{1}\sin \delta _{1}=-A_{2}\cos \theta _{2}-B_{2}\sin \delta _{2},\end{aligned}} $ ()

To apply the boundary conditions for the normal and tangential stresses, we differentiate equations (3.2a,b,c,d) with respect to Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): x and Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): z .

The common factor Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): \mathrm{j}\omega p will cancel in the end, so we simplify the derivation by taking

From equations (2.1b,c,e,h,i) we get for the normal and tangential stresses:
