    Surface Rayleigh waves generation

    Thank you for the answer, I think I misinterpreted and do not fully understand 2 different phenomena: 1. Surface wave generated by incident P wave falling at second critical angle. As stated https://www.nde-ed.org/EducationResources/CommunityCollege/Ultrasonics/Physics/modepropagation.htm, for...

    Surface Rayleigh waves generation

    Good day, I do not fully understand the physical mechanism of formation of Rayleigh waves at the free surface. While their derivation is quite clear and obey free-boundary conditions, it is not clear their physical mechanism. Could you please correct me in my discussion. Incident P-wave can...
