Sound is a travelling wave or mechanical vibration which is the SHM of pressure
transmitted through a solid, liquid, or gas, composed of frequencies within the range of hearing and of a level sufficiently strong to be heard, or the sensation stimulated in organs of hearing by such vibrations. SIMPLE HARMONIC MOTION WAVE MOTION Wave Motion : By Simple Harmonic Motion The definition of simple harmonic motion is simply that the acceleration causing the motion of the particle or object is proportional and in opposition to its displacement x from its equilibrium position. MFLREPLACE TESTING MFLREPLACE's use transmission of high-frequency sound waves into a material to detect imperfections or to locate changes in material properties. The most commonly used MFLREPLACE testing technique is pulse echo, wherein sound is introduced into a test object and reflections (echoes) are returned to a receiver from internal imperfections or from the part's geometrical surfaces.
