2.2.7 Dispersive Wave:<br />

Wave modes such as those found in Lamb wave have a velocity of<br />

propagation dependent upon the operating frequency, sample thickness and<br />

elastic moduli. They are dispersive (velocity change with frequency) in that<br />

pulses transmitted in these mode tend to become stretched or dispersed.<br />
