The effect of interlamina micro-cracks in a periodically layered medium on interactions and a wave propagation is investigated. The refined continuum model of micro-damaged layered media which takes into account the length-scale effects, is proposed. The general results are applied to the free vibra

✦ Synopsis
The aim of this paper is to describe how micro-cracks distributed on the interfaces in a periodic stratified medium effect apparent properties of this medium. The problem is investigated for linear-elastic materials and under assumption of the long-wave approximation. The general results are illustrated by a simple example of two-component stratified medium.

The conventional formulation used in the past for problems involving interface cracks leads to a physical contradiction: The two sides of the crack are assumed to be free of tractions in the formulation, but the crack faces are seen to overlap after the solution is constructed. This unsatisfactory f
