4.1. ACOUSTIC TRANSMISSION BETWEEN TWO MEDIA 63This is a standing wave with amplitude 2Asin(kx). On <strong>the</strong> interfacex = 0, sin(kx) = 0, so <strong>the</strong> pressure is also equal to 0. (also see Figure4.3).Figure 4.2: Amplitude <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> standing wave at transition from low to highimpedance.Figure 4.3: Amplitude <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> standing wave at transition from high to lowimpedance.From<strong>the</strong>absorptionandreflectionexpressionsinfunction<strong>of</strong><strong>the</strong>impedances(see Equations 4.7), one can deduce that <strong>the</strong> impedance <strong>of</strong> a good acoustic
