  • In this article, the propagation and scattering of Rayleigh wave from an interfacial crack in a bilayer structure, a viscoelastic waveguide layer attached to a piezoelectric substrate, have been examined. The Principle of Superposition is used to formulate the problem. The Fourier transform method and stiffness matrix formulation have been used to arrive at singular integral equations. These singular integral equations are then reduced to a system of linear algebraic equations by applying the Gauss-Jacobi quadrature technique. A parametric study has been examined for phase velocity, attenuation, and dynamic stress intensity factor of mode-I and mode-II at both crack-tip.
