Summary
S-wave Velocity
is the speed at which secondary or
Shear Waves
travel through a material, offering insights into the material's
Mechanical Properties
and rigidity. This velocity can be influenced by factors such as density and
Elastic Modulus
, making it a valuable tool in fields like seismology and
Geotechnical Engineering
.
