(a) Statistical distribution of the relative magnitudes MAE for the entire AE catalogue recorded. The magnitude is calculated as where E is the surface of the recorded waveform (V2), considered proportional to the radiated acoustic energy. (b) Log–log Fourier transforms of three AEs recorded on sensor 3, behind a tungsten carbide anvil. Signals display a corner frequency fc of about 2.5 MHz on average, irrespective of the AE magnitude.
