Definition
transverse waves
Term
transverse waves aka
Definition
shear waves
Term
how particles vibrate w/ longitudinal waves
Definition
same direction as wave
Term
how particles vibrate w/ shear waves
Definition
right angles to motion of wave
Term
rayleigh waves aka
Definition
surface waves
Term
surface waves aka
Definition
rayleigh waves
Term
how deep do rayleigh waves penetrate
Definition
only a few waveslengths
Term
wave mode is
Definition
acoustic energy propagates in different modes

such as
longitudinal/ compression
shear/ transverse
rayleigh/ surface
lamb/plate
Term
longitudinal/compression
shear/ transverse
rayleigh/ surface
lamb/plate
are all examples of
Definition
wave modes
Term
rayleigh waves aka
Definition
surface waves
Term
surface waves aka
Definition
rayleigh waves
Term
lamb waves aka
Definition
plate waves
Term
plate waves aka
Definition
lamb waves
Term
wave w/ multiple or varying wave velocities
Definition
lamb wave
Term
how compression/longitudinal waves work
Definition
wave pusses 1 column of attoms
wich push next column and so on
after each column moves it rebounds back
in other direction

particle movement is parallel to wave
Term
only wave mode that can go through solids, liquids and gasses
Definition
longitudinal
Term
longitudinal waves can go through
Definition
solids, liquids, and gasses
Term
kinds of waves that only go through solids
Definition
shear, surface, and plate
Term
shear surface and plate waves go through what materials
Definition
solids
Term
rate at which sound waves pass through various substances
Definition
velocity
Term
velocity
Definition

Term
rayleigh waves are influenced most by defects located
Definition
one wavelength below surface
Term
factors that influence velocity of lamb/plate waves
Definition

frequency of wave,

angle of incidence 

type of material

Term
velocity is solely dependant on type of material and wave in
Definition
longitudinal/compression, shear/transverse, and raleigh/surface waves
Term
what is unique about lamb waves
Definition

velocity is influenced by more then just the type of material

 

like

 

frequency of wave,

angle of incidence
