Note that the applet defaults to compressional velocity in the second material.<br />

The refracted compressional wave angle will be generated <strong>for</strong> given<br />

materials and angles. To find the angle of incidence required to generate a<br />

shear wave at a given angle complete the following:<br />

1. Set V1 to the longitudinal wave velocity of material 1. This material could<br />

be the transducer wedge or the immersion liquid.<br />

2. Set V2 to the shear wave velocity (approximately one-half its<br />

compressional velocity) of the material to be inspected.<br />

3. Set Q2 to the desired shear wave angle.<br />

4. Read Q1, the correct angle of incidence.
