KRASIL'NIKOV, V.A. and KRYLOV, V.V., 1979. Surface-tension dispersion of Rayleigh waves. Soviet Physics - Acoustics, 25 (3), pp. 231-234.
The influence of surface tension in solids on the propagation of Rayleigh elastic surface waves is investigated. It is shown that surface tension imparts dispersion to the Rayleigh wave velosity, an effect
that can be used for the experimental determination of both the relative variations of the surface tension
under various external effects and its absolute value.
