Amplitude transmission coefficient in seismic reflection and refraction

Input(s)

Z1Z_{1}: Acoustic Impedance of Layer 1( kg/m2 s)1\left(\mathrm{~kg} / \mathrm{m}^{2} \mathrm{~s}\right)

Z2Z_{2}: Acoustic Impedance of Layer 2( kg/m2 s)2\left(\mathrm{~kg} / \mathrm{m}^{2} \mathrm{~s}\right)

Output(s)

T: Amplitude Transmission Coefficient (dimensionless)

Formula(s)

T=2Z1Z2+Z1\mathrm{T}=\frac{2 * \mathrm{Z}_{1}}{\mathrm{Z}_{2}+\mathrm{Z}_{1}}
