Attenuation models for material characterization

Ultrasonic attenuation is a useful tool in characterizing the damage state of different materials. The attenuation coefficients for the incident longitudinal and transverse waves are both derived from the scattering cross section of the material. Scattering cross section is defined as the ratio of t...
