Abstract
Surface wave propagation on agarose gels was studied by measuring the veloc ity of mechanically excited pulsed waves around sol-gel transition temperat ure. Two independent modes were clearly observed in the gel state. The velo cities of the two modes were successfully fitted to the theoretical calcula tion of pseudocapillary and Rayleigh modes which were predicted by Onodera and Choi.
