Theoretical and experimental investigation of surface acoustic wave propagation on a hollow spherical shell using laser ultrasound
An analytical model of surface acoustic waves on the surface of a hollow spherical shell generated by a pulsed laser source is proposed using the Legendre polynomials expansion and contour integration method. The model predicts two interesting phenomena. The dispersive characteristic of thick spheri...
