Hsia, Shao-Yi; Chiu, Shih-Ming; Cheng, Jyin-Wen Wave propagation at the human muscle-compact bone interface. (English) Zbl 1164.74349 Theor. Appl. Mech. (Belgrade) 33, No. 3, 223-243 (2006). The authors investigate the biological effects of ultrasound in human tissue making use of theories which are thought to be applicable to composites with granular or porous structure, effective chiral composite, and human compact bone. The article provides a theoretical analysis concerning the reflected and transmitted fields of an incident plane wave \(P\) propagating at the human muscle-compact bone interface. Wave propagation (as occurring in human muscle-compact bone) is also examined.
