What is Characteristics of Rayleigh Waves about?
Rayleigh waves are a type of surface wave that travel along the surface of solids. They cause the ground to shake in an elliptical motion parallel to the direction of propagation, with no transverse motion. Rayleigh waves are used in seismology to study earthquakes and in non-destructive testing to detect defects in materials. They can also travel around the Earth multiple times after large earthquakes.
