Abstract
Quality control and inspection methods have become a critical challenge in everyday situations of the engineering profession. This is due to the evolution of the materials used today in industry and also increasingly complex and critical nature of many of the products and structures produced with them. Ultrasonic measurement is widely used especially in oil and gas and aerospace industries. This method is used because it is effective and not involving damaging the original parts. In ultrasonic measurement there are few types of waves emitted and where one of it is Rayleigh wave or mostly known as surface wave. Surface waves are generated when longitudinal waves intersects a surface near to the second critical angle. This review paper will describe about the types of waves emitted and produce and also some of the research that has been done related to the surface wave. This research can contribute to green environment because it reduces waste by suggesting the uses of Perspex.
