Abstract :
A method is proposed for determining the shear impedance of viscoelastic liquids. To this end, SH (shear) surface waves of the Love and Bleustein-Culyaev types have been used. Preliminary measurements performed for typical mineral oils agree very well with theoretical predictions. It is concluded that the proposed method can be a few orders of magnitude more sensitive than the classical Mason method using SH bulk waves.
