Equivalence of the times of flight by ultrasonic energy and phase velocities and determination of the elastic constants of anisotropic materials

The purpose of this paper is to provide the experimenters who use the oblique incidence ultrasonic method for anisotropic elastic constants measurement eith some useful relations. In particular, the equivalence of the times of flight by the energy ad phase velocities, which is key to the oblique incidence method, is proved explicitly. This equivalence greatly simplifies the analysis of immersion measurement results. In oredr to correctly measure the transit time of an immersed sample using the oblique incidence, the receiving transducer should be shifted laterally, and an expression in given for this shift. A method for determining all nine elastic constants of an orthotropic material is briefly described and the measurement results are listed for SiC particulate reinforced A1 matrix composites.
