Abstract
The ultrasonic spectroscopy (broadband pulse) technique was applied to simultaneously measure phase velocity and attenuation coefficient of shear waves in bovine compact bone at frequencies ranging from 4.0-10.0 MHz. It was found that the ratio of attenuation coefficient of shear waves to that of longitudinal waves at a particular frequency for bovine compact bone was smaller than that of other polymer synthesizing materials. The anisotropy of phase velocity and attenuation coefficient of compact bone was also experimentally examined.Entities:
