Abstract
Cylindrical wide band transducers are widely used in the V(z) and the V(x) methods for the analysis of elastic properties of solid materials. In the V(z) method1, the output voltage V of the focused transducer is acquired as a function of the defocusing distance z. Two cylindrical transducers are employed in the V(x) method2,3. Foci of the transducers are adjusted to be parallel to each other and to the specimen surface, and V(x) data are acquired during a scan of the receiving transducer along the specimen surface.
