            Abstract : 
We study surface wave propagation over a piezoelectric half-space with an imperfectly bonded mass layer. The imperfect interface between the half-space and the layer is described by the so-called shear-lag model with an elastic constant characterizing the interface physical property. An analytical solution is obtained. Discussion and numerical solutions are presented
