Abstract
We discuss apparent characteristic features of Rayleigh scattering of elastic waves from cracks. Interpreting these features, we suggest a procedure that in some experimental situations may be useful to distinguish generally shaped cracks from volume defects and to determine for elliptically shaped cracks the orientation, shape, and size.Keywords
