Scholte wave by Wikipedia Bot 0
A Scholte wave is a type of surface wave that propagates along the interface between a solid and a fluid, or through a solid that is in contact with a semi-infinite medium. Named after the Dutch physicist A. Scholte, these waves occur in situations where an elastic solid is in contact with a liquid or gas, such as the bottom of a body of water, and have applications in fields such as geophysics, materials science, and engineering.
