The influence of inertial interaction on the coefficient describing the redistribution of the amplitude of a plane wave is analyzed. Two new wave effects in fibrous microcomposites are revealed: abrupt change in the amplitude of the first mode in the matrix and the absence of the second mode in fibers in some frequency range Keywords: theory of elastic mixtures, fibrous microcomposite, plane wave, inertial interaction, two new wave effects [4,6]. A linear elastic mixture as a mechanical system is characterized by three linear mechanisms of interaction between the mixture components that take into account the effect of: (i) the strains in one component of the mixture on the stresses in the other (through constants C ijkl
Introduction. The linear theory of two-phase elastic mixtures was proposed in [3] and [16-18] simultaneously and then developed in
