Plane wave propagation through contact between solids has been investigated using imperfectly bonded interface model. In this model, the contact behavior is represented through effective interface stiffnesses. We have developed a micromechanical methodology for determining complex-valued effective normal and shear interface stiffnesses by considering asperity contact interactions. The methodology incorporates effects of surface roughness, anisotropy, existing stress conditions and rate-dependent asperity contacts. We use the derived effective stiffnesses to elucidate wave transmission phenomena exhibited by interfaces.
