If the particles themselves do not move, then you have no wave, and nothing is transferred.If the particles are free to move about their rest positions, then you can have a wave, andit can transfer energy from place to place.
Transverse Wave.
Tranverse wave
Amplitudethe maximum distance the particles of the medium carrying the wave move away from their rest position

The particles of the wave (for compressive waves). Or for transverse waves, yet the particles move parallel to the wave too.

They move in a circular motion
