Hello,

Although I submitted the same question a couple of days ago here, but I am still trying to solve the 1-dim acoustic wave equation with two different media. Actually, though this equation, I want to know how much the acoustic pulse is reflected and transmitted at the interface. Could you please help me or can give some comments ? In the following code, I used the two continuity conditions of the acoustic wave at the interface of media, which are pressure and displacement continuity conditions. Thank you very much in advance.
