Abstract

In this study, non contact experimental method is proposed in order to determine the material properties in 20–400 kHz range. Diffraction correction is used to eliminate the spreading error due to the spherical wave generated by the hydrophone, which is used as a transmitter. Method is validated on polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). Material properties of gelatine gel is also determined.
