DEFINITION

Classification: 367/31

Of noncompressional acoustic wave energy:

(under subclass 28) Subject matter wherein the energy of propagating stresses other than compressional stresses is measured.

(1) Note. Propagating stresses of this subclass type include shear waves, surface waves (which may be referred to as "Rayleigh", "Love", "tube" or "Stoneley" waves), and refracted waves (which may be referred to as "head" or "conical" waves).
