When considering incident sound from medium 1, the sound energy that is transmitted into medium 2 can be regarded as absorbed by medium 2. A very central concept in acoustics that describes the absorbing ability of a medium or a boundary is the absorption factor .. The absorption factor is defined as

where Wi is the incident sound pressure, Wr is the reflected sound pressure and Wt is the transmitted sound power. Because the power can be expressed as W = Ix S, where S is the area and Ix is the intensity, which can be expressed as cpI x 0

7.1.3 Propagation of plane waves in a three-dimensional space
Before analyzing the oblique incidence of a wave against a boundary, we consider how a wave can be described when its direction of propagation doesnt coincide with a coordinate axis. For sound propagation in the positive x-direction in a Cartesian coordinate system, (4-69) implies that
)(),( xktieptx = p , (7-29) where the (prime) symbol is used to distinguish that coordinate system from coming systems.

To describe multi-dimensi onal propagation, an unprimed coordinate system is introduced. In that system, for simplicity, we begin by studying the propagation in the xy-plane, in order to then generalize to three dimensions. The primed system has been rotated through an angle 1 about the z-axis relative to the unprimed, as shown in figure 7-6.

In a so-called orthogonal transformation, the description can be transformed from the primed to the unprimed system. The position vector

7.1.4 Oblique incidence on a boundary between two fluid media
In order to analyze what happens when a plane acoustic wave with a certain angle of incid-ence i reaches the bounding surface between two fluid media, it is necessary to supplement the types of boundary conditions used up to this point. These boundary conditions, which require continuity of pressure and particle velocity across the boundary surface, are supplemented with the condition that the incident, reflected, and transmitted waves have the same periodicity along the boundary surface, i.e., the plane x = 0 in figure 7-7.
