the relationship i saw was for piezoelectric sensors with some capacitance that measure a voltage depending on the deformation of the sensor. if squeezed, a positive voltage, if squeezed harder ,a more positive voltage, if stretched, a negative voltage, etc i imagine this would an assortment...

i suppose it would be a mechanical vibration in a solid object like a block of wood or steel

So I'm supposing a scenario where you have energy transfer into a solid and waves propagating out from the impact point and i want to measure the energy at different distances from the "epicenter" with sensors. the relationships I've been pointed to are basically conservation of energy at the...
