Abstract
The propagation of an ultrasonic wave through a sample is widely used for the measurement of the stiffness tensor of orthorhombic materials. The immersion technic1–3 allows the identification of all the nine coefficients of the above mentioned tensor, from phase velocity measurements of the plane waves propagating through the sample. LASER generation of ultrasound4, associated with an optical interferometric detection, is a non contact methodology offering an alternative solution for the characterization of materials.
