French term

La relation de Viktorov

FVA French to English Tech/Engineering Physics
I.A. Viktorov was a physicist who made an approximation for the Rayleigh and Lamb waves. Though I have used 'approximation,' I do not know which term is the most suitable in English:

1) relation
2) formula
3) approximation
4) law

Viktorov approximate formula/approximate relation/approximate/formula

Viktorov approximate solution

All of them can convey the meaning. It is an approximation/approximate formula used as to solve the equation of the Rayleigh and Lamb waves.

Peer comment(s):

agree Althea Draper : I can't see the equation in the first 5 refs, but your last ref (equation 8) is the same as I found in French references for 'La relation de Viktorov'. In this ref, they call it the Viktorov Equation.

The Viktorov method

See:

https://www.imperial.ac.uk/media/imperial-college/research-c...

particularly section '2.1.1 Surface waves for NDT applications' on page 31 of the thesis, which refers to Viktorov's 1967 publication 'Rayleigh Waves and Lamb Waves - Physical Theory and Application' as a 'method'.
Peer comment(s):

disagree Althea Draper : The method referred to here (page 31) is the calculation of defect depth not wave velocity which is what the 'relation de Viktorov' refers to.

Peer comment(s):

disagree Althea Draper : From what I can see, 'La relation de Viktorov' is an equation that determines the velocity of Rayleigh waves, and doesn't correspond to the ratios in your reference which look to be referring to attenuation of the waves rather than the absolute velocity.

Reference:

La relation de Viktorov

In French

'La relation de Viktorov' can be seen in this paper - equation 3 on page 2. In this paper it is referred to as "la relation de Viktorov" and as "la loi de Viktorov".

http://documents.irevues.inist.fr/bitstream/handle/2042/1602...

and here on slide 30/36 (equation 3)

https://slideplayer.fr/slide/11790679/

In English

In Z-Translations Translator's last reference (link below), you can see the same equation referred to as "the Viktorov equation" which references equation 8 on the paper.
