Love waves should vibrate the ground in the horizantal direction no? Perpendicular to direction of progragation. It's not horizontally to the energy propagation as you said in 2:22.
This is misleading. In a Love wave, the motion is horizontal, but perpendicular to the direction of propagation (similar to an SH wave). So much misleading information on RUclips!
Generally based on propagation and amplitude, R waves have the potential to cause increased particle motion through the surface. However, surface waves are relatively the same velocity meaning they will travel through at the same time, combining particles motions between R & L.
Generally the R waves cause more damage to an area, however many environmental factors influence the level of shaking and also damage. The L wave does combine at the same frequency and velocity as the R wave being emitted by the same hypocenter.
@@MahmoodKhan-t1x From degree and post graduate work, liquefaction is caused by the movement and separation of particles to create a more fluid and weakened material. The combination of both Love and Rayleigh waves would achieve this, as they propagate together through the surface. If I had to pick one perhaps the Love wave but I would have to research and conduct experiments to know for sure.

Best demonstrations and notes on each type compared to other surface waves videos. Thank you so much!!
Thank you, I really appreciate your comment

Rayleigh waves are scary! Thanks for the explanation.
FANTASTIC PRESENTATION

Great explanation. Thank you :)
used this for my alevel, fantastic explaination
I haven't heard of the Rayleigh Wave. Good to know. I thought the Love Wave was named after the shape it makes on a seismograph
I appreciate your feedback, thank you. Love was an english seismologist who originally picked out this wave form as a surface wave during earthquakes.
Which wave is most destructive.. L or R?
Generally based on propagation and amplitude, R waves have the potential to cause increased particle motion through the surface. However, surface waves are relatively the same velocity meaning they will travel through at the same time, combining particles motions between R & L.

Ans is not clear, Which one is most destructive R (Rayleigh) or L (Love)?
Generally the R waves cause more damage to an area, however many environmental factors influence the level of shaking and also damage. The L wave does combine at the same frequency and velocity as the R wave being emitted by the same hypocenter.
Thank you sir.
Dont Love waves only move side to side and s wave up and down?
There is a combination of movements with the Love wave combining up and side particle motion
@@earthscienceclassroom Thank you, Is there any ave inparticular that causes liquefaction, or are there any wave specific impacts?

Thankyou 😊
THANKYOU
Sir please correct the love wav eexplanation .It is side ways not updown
