Plane-wave forcing of a pinned elastic half-sheet

ID: plane-wave-forcing-of-a-pinned-elastic-half-sheet

For identical unit-density, unit-sound-speed fluids above and below a sheet on , use time and transform . The outgoing acoustic square-root branch obeys . If is the pressure jump upper minus lower, and the right Half-range Fourier transform of the scattered normal derivative, the Wiener-Hopf equation is
The total displacement is pinned, so its transformed second derivative is . The bare-sheet pole in reconstructed displacement must cancel: . This is an incoming-pole cancellation at a pinned membrane edge condition, distinct from the outgoing coupled-mode pole at the zero of .
