Abstract

Excitation and propagation of elastic shock waves in perspex sheets of different shape have been investigated with respect to shadow optics. It has been found that by the impact in the sheet an elastic stress field is first formed. Its energy is converted into periodical oscillations within the immediate region of impact and is by and by radiated as periodical elastic waves.
