This paper aims to study the energy ratios of plane waves on an interface of nonlocal thermoelastic halfspace (NTS) and nonlocal orthotropic piezothermoelastic half-space (NOPS).

The memory-dependent derivatives (MDDs) approach with a hyperbolic two-temperature (HTT), three-phase lag theory is used here to study how the energy ratios change at the interface with the angle of incidence.

Plane waves that travel through NTS and hit the interface as a longitudinal wave, a thermal wave, or a transversal wave send four waves into the NOPS medium and three waves back into the NTS medium. The amplitude ratios of the different waves that are reflected and transmitted are used to calculate the energy ratios of the waves. It is observed that these ratios are affected by the HTT, nonlocal and MDD parameters.

The energy ratios correspond to four distinct models; nonlocal HTT with memory, nonlocal HTT without memory, local HTT with memory and nonlocal classical-two-temperature with memory concerning the angle of incidence from 0 degree to 90 degree.

This model applies to several fields, including earthquake engineering, soil dynamics, high-energy particle physics, nuclear fusion, aeronautics and other fields where nonlocality, MDD and conductive temperature play an important role.

This paper aims to study the energy ratios of plane waves on an imperfect interface of elastic half-space (EHS) and orthotropic piezothermoelastic half-space (OPHS).

The dual-phase lag (DPL) theory with memory-dependent derivatives is employed to study the variation of energy ratios at the imperfect interface.

A plane longitudinal wave (P) or transversal wave (SV) propagates through EHS and strikes at the interface. As a result, two waves are reflected, and four waves are transmitted, as shown in Figure 2. The amplitude ratios are determined by imperfect boundaries having normal stiffness and transverse stiffness. The variation of energy ratios is computed numerically for a particular model of graphite (EHS)/cadmium selenide (OPHS) and depicted graphically against the angle of incidence to consider the effect of stiffness parameters, memory and kernel functions.

The energy distribution of incident P or SV waves among various reflected and transmitted waves, as well as the interaction of waves for imperfect interface (IIF), normal stiffness interface (NSIF), transverse stiffness interface (TSIF), and welded contact interface (WCIF), are important factors to consider when studying seismic wave behavior.

The present model may be used in various disciplines, such as high-energy particle physics, earthquake engineering, nuclear fusion, aeronautics, soil dynamics and other areas where memory-dependent derivative and phase delays are significant.

In a variety of technical and geophysical scenarios, wave propagation in an elastic/piezothermoelastic medium with varying magnetic fields, initial stress, temperature, porosity, etc., gives important information regarding the presence of new and modified waves.
