What is Types and Velocities of Seismic Waves about?

There are several types of seismic waves that travel at different velocities. P-waves are compressional waves that push and pull particles in the direction of propagation. S-waves are shear waves that involve shearing and rotation of particles perpendicular to the direction of propagation. Surface waves like Rayleigh and Love waves travel along the surface. P-waves travel faster than S-waves. The velocities of seismic waves depend on factors like the material density and elastic properties, saturation level
