The following corrections are made in the second part of the above-mentioned paper. When an quasi-SH(qSH) wave is incident at the interface of two monoclinic media, it generates three re#ected waves, namely, quasi-P (qP), quasi-SV (qSV) and qSH and three refracted waves qP, qSV and qSH (Figure 1).

โฆ Synopsis
This paper deals with the propagation, reflection and transmission of shear waves in monoclinic media. The dispersion equation for a monoclinic layer overlying a monoclinic half-space has been obtained and curves are plotted. The amplitude ratios for both the reflected and transmitted waves due to reflection of shear waves at the interface of two monoclinic half-spaces have also been computed and the numerical results are presented graphically. The results are compared with the isotropic case. It has been observed that, in monoclinic media, the amplitude ratios for reflected and transmitted wave increases approximately by 25 and 50 per cent respectively, in comparison to the isotropic case.
