RESONANCE ACOUSTIC SPECTROSCOPY

  • Chapter
Handbook of Applied Solid State Spectroscopy

Abstract

Resonance acoustic spectroscopy (RAS) is the study of resonance effects present in acoustic echoes of an elastic target. These resonance effects are caused by the excitation of eigenvibrations of the target by an incident acoustic wave. Such use of resonance effects for the purpose of characterization of an elastic object (shape, size, composition, and integrity) is similar to the way chemical elements are identified from their optical properties. RAS is a powerful tool for monitoring various characteristics of elastic components and in many engineering applications for quality control purposes.
