The problem of reflection and transmission of SH waves at a corrugated interface between transversely isotropic half-space and visco-elastic half-space is investigated. Rayleigh's method is adopted and expressions of reflection and transmission coefficients are obtained in closed form for the first order approximation of the corrugation. It is found that these coefficients depend on corrugation of the interface and are affected by the elastic properties of the media. Numerical computations have been performed and the results obtained are presented graphically. Some earlier results, including those of Tomar and Saini (1997) and Asano (1960), have been obtained as particular cases of the problem.
