APPARATUS FOR DETERMINING THE MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF A SOLID ABSTRACT Apparatus for determining, through an interposed medium, the mechanical properties of a solid having a surface. The apparatus includes a) ultrasonic transmission apparatus, located in a first location, for transmitting ultrasonic waves through the interposed medium and the solid, generally parallel to the surface, b) at least one ultrasonic receiver unit, located in each of second and third locations, for receiving the ultrasonic waves, wherein the first, second and third locations are colinear along the surface, c) apparatus for locating the receiver unit such that a first receipt time of an ultrasonic wave from the surface to the receiver unit at the second location is generally equivalent to a second receipt time from the surface to the receiver unit at the third location, and d) apparatus for calculating the mechanical properties from ultrasonic waves transmitted by the ultrasonic transmission apparatus once the first and second receipt times are generally identical.
