Lamb waves propagate in solid plates or spheres. [1] They are elastic waves whose particle motion lies in the plane that contains the direction of wave propagation and the direction perpendicular to the plate. In 1917, the English mathematician Horace Lamb published his classic analysis and description of acoustic waves of this type. Their ...
EMATs are suitable to generate all kinds of waves in metallic and/or magnetostrictive materials. Depending on the design and orientation of coils and magnets, shear horizontal (SH) bulk wave mode (norm-beam or angle-beam), surface wave, plate waves such as SH and Lamb waves, and all sorts of other bulk and guided-wave modes can be excited.
Experimental image of surface acoustic waves on a crystal of tellurium oxide [1]. A surface acoustic wave (SAW) is an acoustic wave traveling along the surface of a material exhibiting elasticity, with an amplitude that typically decays exponentially with depth into the material, such that they are confined to a depth of about one wavelength.
P wave and S wave from seismograph Velocity of seismic waves in Earth versus depth. [1] The negligible S-wave velocity in the outer core occurs because it is liquid, while in the solid inner core the S-wave velocity is non-zero. A seismic wave is a mechanical wave of acoustic energy that travels through the Earth or another planetary body.
1916 – Horace Lamb coins the term "vorticity". [51] 1916-1923 – Lord Rayleigh, and later G. I. Taylor describe Rayleigh–Taylor instability. 1917 – Lamb introduces Lamb waves, generalizing Rayleigh's wave theory. 1918 – Ludwig Prandtl develops theory of flow over airplane wings. [1]

The internet can't get over one happy lamb online, who was practically in Heaven while their owner gave them some love. The expression on their face is so, so sweet. Ahhhh, we feel so peaceful ...
