1. Introduction
Problems of wave propagation in perfect magnetoelastic conductors have been studied, among others, by Knopoff [1], Dunkin and Eringen [2], Yu and Tang [3], Paria [4]. Kalishki and Rogula [5] have discussed Rayleigh waves in a semi-infinite perfect electrical conductor for a single component magnetic field. The propagation of Rayleigh-type magnetoelastic waves in a semi-infinite perfect electrical conductor has also been studied by Viktorov[6] under a two component magnetic field.
In a review article by Maugin[7] a detailed study of wave motion, particularly harmonic waves in a hyperelastic non- linear dielectrics have been made.
A study of SH waves in solids as a perturbation of the boundary conditions for SH bulk waves were also made by Maugin[8]. Lee and Its [9] have considered in detail the effect of a magnetic field on the propagation of Rayleigh waves, particularly under high magnetic permeability. Chakraborty and Chattopadhyay[10] have considered the problem of magnetoelastic SH waves in a perfectly conducting half-space with an upper layer and established the fact that surface waves will exist due to the presence of a magnetic field even in those cases where ordinary Love waves do not exist. Recently Acharya and Roy[11] studied the propagation of surface waves in fibre-reinforced elec- trically conducting elastic solids. The presence of magnetic field was seen to modulate the Rayleigh wave velocity although no discernible effect was seen on Love waves.
The problem of wave propagation in plates is analogous in many respects to wave propagation in layered spaces. In the present problem, we have considered a two-layered thick plate, both layers being perfectly conducting magne- toelastic solids, and we have shown that SH-type waves can propagate either with a velocity intermediate between the respective magnetoelastic S-wave velocities in the two layers , or with a velocity greater than both of these S-wave velocities. It is also shown that the effect of the magnetic field is to alter the group velocity if the field is unidirec- tional with the direction of wave propagation. Numerical results have been presented to demonstrate the effect of the field in the phase and group velocities.

2. Formulation of the problem
Let us consider a two-layered medium of infinite extent, the two layers being of thickness y1and y2respectively.
The domain under consideration is given by (−∞ < x < ∞, −y2≤ y ≤ y1,−∞ < z < ∞), where the interface of two layers is taken as y= 0, the positive direction of y-axis as pointing away from the free surface y = y1of the upper layer.
We want to study the propagation of two dimensional waves in this medium propagating along x-direction under a bias magnetic field (H1, H2, 0). Both the mediums are taken to be perfectly conducting linear elastic solids. Let medium (−∞ < x < ∞, 0 ≤ y ≤ y1,−∞ < z < ∞) be M1, and the medium (−∞ < x < ∞, −y2≤ y < 0, −∞ < z <
∞) be M2and G1, G2respectively denote the rigidity moduli of these two.
The basic equations for magneto elastic disturbances are given by (I). Maxwell’s equations of the electromagnetic field are
∇ · D = 0, ∇ · B = 0;
∇ × H = J, ∇ × E = − ∂ B
∂ t; (1)
(where the displacement current is neglected) D the electric displacement, B the magnetic induction, H the mag- netic field intensity, E electric field intensity and J current density vectors respectively.
(II). The equations of motion are τi j , j+ [J × B]i= ρ∂2ui
∂ t2 , (i , j = 1,2,3) (2)
where J× B is the Lorenz force due to the electromagnetic field and τi j being the usual elastic stress tensor in the medium .
(III).The constitutive equations are
B= µH, D = εE (3)
with Ohm’s law as
J= σ(E + ˙u × B) (4)
whereσ is the electric conductivity, µ is the magnetic permeability, ˙u the particle velocity and ε the permittivity of the material.
(IV). Elastic Stress-Strain relations
τi j= λuk ,kδi j+ 2G ei j (5)
where ei jare the strain tensor components,τi jthe stress tensor components and
2ei j= ui , j+ uj ,i.θ = ei i, (i , j = 1,2,3) (6)
uibeing particle displacement andλ, G are Lame constants.
(V). The electromagnetic boundary conditions
n.kBk = 0, n × kHk = 0, n · kE + ˙u × Bk = 0 (7)
where n is normal to the interfaces or surface y= constant. k.k denotes the jump across the boundary of the vector within.
(VI). Stress continuity conditions across the boundaries y= constant are
(τ2 j+ τE2 j)+− (τ2 j+ τE2 j)−= 0, (j = 1,2,3) (8)
where τE3 j are Maxwell’s stress tensor components .
Let the initial constant magnetic field be H(0)in vacuo, H(1)in M1and H(2)in M2, where we take
H(p)= (H1(p), H2(p), 0), p= 0,1,2. (9)
There is no initial electric field and the current density J is initially zero. The displacement current D, being small, is neglected throughout this problem.
The electro magnetic boundary conditions(7)on y= 0 , y = y1and y= - y2give
H1(0)= H1(1)= H1(2) (10)
and µ0H2(0)= µ1H2(1)= µ2H2(2) (11)
whereµ0,µ1andµ2are the magnetic permeability of vacuum, M1and M2respectively. Hence
H(1)= (H1(1), H2(1), 0)= (H1, H2, 0) (12)
and H(2)= (H1(2), H2(2), 0)= (H1, r H2, 0) (13)
where H1(1)= H1, H2(1)= H2, r= µ1/µ2. (14)
2.1. Propagation of SH wave
We now consider an SH wave, propagating in the x-direction, with displacement given by
u(α)= (0,0, v(α)(x , y, t )) (15)
withα = 1 for M1,α = 2 for M2respectively.
The perturbed magnetic field is given by
(H1(α)+ h1(α), H2(α)+ h2(α), h3(α)) (16)
withα = 1 for M1,α = 2 for M2respectively.
The media are perfectly conducting, soσ1,σ2→ ∞ and(4)gives the perturbed electric field, which on substituting in(1)gives
∂ h(α)
∂ t = (0,0,H1(α)∂2v(α)
∂ x ∂ t + H2(α)∂2v(α)
∂ y ∂ t). (17)
(neglecting second order terms ) Integrating(17)with respect to time t
h(α)= (0,0,H1(α)∂ v(α)
∂ x + H2(α)∂ v(α)
∂ y )= (0,0,h3(α))(s a y ). (18)
The Lorenz force is
J(α)× B(α)= (0,0,µα(H2(α)h3(α)y + H1(α)h3(α)x)). (19) (neglecting second order terms )
The equation of motion in M1is
(1+ a12/b12)vx x(1)+ (1 + a32/b12)vy y(1)+ (2a1a3/b12)vx y(1)= (1/b12)vt t(1), (20)
where a12= µ1H12/ρ1; a32= µ1H22/ρ1; b12= G1/ρ1 (21) a1, a3are Alfven wave velocities and b1is the S-wave velocity in M1.
The equation of motion for M2is
(1+ a22/b22)vx x(2)+ (1 + r2a42/b22)vy y(2)+ (2r a2a4/b22)vx y(2)= (1/b22)vt t(2) (22)
where a22= µ2H12/ρ2; a42= µ2H22/ρ2; b22= G2/ρ2; r= µ1/µ2 (23) a2, a4are Alfven wave velocities and b2is the S-wave velocity in M2
From(8)stress-free condition on y = y1and y= −y2leads to
G1vy(1)= 0, a t y = y1 (24)
G2vy(2)= 0, a t y = −y2 (25)
and from stress continuous condition at y=0, we have
[G1vy(1)]y→0+= [G2vy(2)]y→0−. (26)
The displacement being continuous at y= 0 , we have
[v(1)]y→0+= [v(2)]y→0−. (27)
2.2. Wave solution
For a SH wave travelling in the x-direction we assume solution of equation (20) of the form v(1)(x , y, t ) = f(y )ei k(x −c t ).
Substituting v(1)(x , y, t ) in(20), then we have the solution in the form
v(1)(x , y, t ) = (A1ei k n1y+ A2ei k n2y)ei k(x −c t ) (28) where A1and A2are arbitrary constants and
n1,2= −L ± N (29)

q

c2/β12− 1/(a32+ b12) (30)
where β12= b12(b12+ a12+ a32)/(a32+ b12). (31)
We assume solution of equation(22)of the form v(2)(x , y, t ) = g (y )ei k(x −c t ). Substituting v(2)(x , y, t ) in(22), then we have the solution
v(2)(x , y, t ) = (B1e−k (i m1+m2)y+ B2e−k (i m1−m2)y)ei k(x −c t ) (32) where B1and B2are arbitrary constants and

m2= b2

1− c2/β22m1/r a2a4 (34)
where β22= b22+ a22− r2a22a42/(r2a42+ b22). (35) Using boundary conditions(24)-(27), we can eliminate the arbitrary constants A1, A2, B1and B2to obtain the fre- quency equation

+i [G1m1(N2− L2) +G2(m12+ m22)L]sinhkm2y2sin N k y1= 0. (36) 2.3. Real wave velocity
We look for a SH wave with real wave velocity c in the two following situations (1)whenβ1< c < β2and (2)when β1< β2< c .
2.3.1. β1< c < β2
In this case, N and m2are both real. So, equating real and imaginary parts of L.H.S. to zero of Eq.(36)to zero, then we have following two equations are satisfied by the wave velocity c
[G1m2(N2− L2)coshkm2y2sin N k y1− G2(m12+ m22)N sinhkm2y2cos N k y1] = 0 (37)
[G1m1(N2− L2) +G2(m12+ m22)L]sinhkm2y2sin N k y1= 0. (38) For Eqs.(37)and(38)to be consistent, then the following equations are satisfied
tan N k y1=G2N(m12+ m22)
G1m2(N2− L2)tanh k m2y2 (39)
and G1m1(N2− L2) +G2(m12+ m22)L = 0. (40) Eq.(40)holds if
m1= L = 0. (41)
Condition(41)valid in either of the following two cases:
Case1: H2= 0, H16= 0 (Magnetic field in the direction of wave propagation.
Here a3= a4= 0,m = L = 0
then β12= (b12+ a12), β22= (b22+ a22).

If we consider k y2→ ∞ , we get the frequency equation for magnetoelastic Love waves as in Chakraborty and Chattopadhyay[10]. These are dispersive in nature, only the velocity range has been modified by the presence of the magnetic field.
Case 2: H26= 0, H1= 0(Magnetic field transverse to direction of wave propagation) Here a1= a2= 0,m = L = 0. then β12= b12, β22= b22.

If k y2→ ∞ then the frequency equation reduces to that of ordinary Love waves with the moduli of rigidity, density altered by factors, and the depth of the upper layer is also altered by a factor.
Particular Case: H1= 0, H2= 0 (No Magnetic Field) Here a1= a2= a3= a4= 0
then β12= b12, β22= b22.
The frequency equation is obtained from(39)as

Therefore, if no magnetic field and y2→ ∞ then we get frequency equation for standard Love waves.
2.3.2. β1< β2< c
In this case, m2is purely imaginary and N is real.
Let m2= i m2where m2is real and m2= b2
Æb22+ a22+ r2a42Æ

+ i [G1m2(N2− L2)coskm2y2sin N k y1− G2(m12− m22)N sinkm2y2cos N k y1] = 0. (49) So, equating both side real and imaginary parts of Eq.(49)to zero, then we have following two equations are satisfied by the wave velocity c
[G1m1(N2− L2) −G2(m22− m12)L]sinkm2y2sin N k y1= 0 (50)
and [G1m2(N2− L2)coskm2y2sin N k y1+G2(m22− m12))N sinkm2y2cos N k y1] = 0. (51) For Eqs.(50)and(51)to be consistent, then the following equations are satisfied

3. Numerical study and discussion
Real wave velocities have been plotted for different values of elastic and magnetic parameters with the magnetic field range in from 0 to higher values. Two cases have been considered :
(1) When the magnetic field is along the direction of wave propagation.
(2) When the magnetic field is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation.
In the case when phase velocity lies betweenβ1andβ2, we find that an increases in magnetic field intensity in the direction of propagation (which is shown by increase in non dimensional Alfven wave velocity) non dimensional phase and group velocities both increase as shown inFig. 1(cases i - ix). However not much change in velocity profile is observed if the magnetic field increased in the transverse direction shown inFig. 5(cases i - vi). Dispersion effect becomes pronounced as the depth of the second stratum (i.e. y2)increase up to a certain level. However, after that, further increase in k y2does not produce appreciable change in wave velocity as seen inFig. 3(cases i - iii) and Fig. 6(cases i - ii). The phase velocity is lower where the non magnetic SH-wave velocity ratiobb1
2 higher, shown in Fig. 4(cases i - iii) andFig. 7(cases i - ii). All these graphs have been drawn with fixed value of the ratio material density and fixed ratio for the magnetic permeability.
Numerical work has also been done for the case whenβ1< β2< c shown inFigs. 8-11. The observation made earlier regarding increasing the wave velocity with the increase in longitudinal magnetic field also hold in the case too.
Once again no discernible effect of the transverse magnetic field is seen on the wave velocities. The phase velocity decreases if the magnetic field be kept fixed and bb12 gradually increase towards 1.
4. Conclusions
In this paper we have studied the propagation of SH-waves in a medium consisting of two perfectly conducting infinite layers with different physical and magnetic properties. If the depth of one layer increases towards infinity then the frequency equation is the same as that of magnetoelastic Love waves as studied by Chakraborty and Chattopadhyay[10]. It is seen that SH waves exits in the both cases: (1) when phase velocity lies between the magnetoelastic SH-waves velocities i.e.β1andβ2of the two media. (2) when the phase velocity is greater than both of these.
We see that from the frequency equation such wave exist even when b1 > b2 providedβ1< β2which is possible depending on the magnetic permeability and density of the two layers. For a low ratio of the permeabilities this is possible as shown inFigs. 2.
