Secondary waves, also known as shear waves, move by causing particles to move perpendicular to the direction of wave travel. This results in a side-to-side motion that causes rocks to shear horizontally. Secondary waves are the second-fastest seismic waves and are responsible for causing the ground to shake during an earthquake.
Primary waves and secondary waves (body waves). Love waves and rayleigh waves (surface waves) do not travel through the earth's mantle. Though secondary waves do not go through liquids, the asthenosphere is only a semi-liquid, so secondary waves can still go through it.
S waves (secondary waves) cannot pass through liquids because they rely on shear stress to propagate, which is not possible in fluid environments. This property of S waves is used to help determine the liquid content of the Earth's interior.
Secondary waves, also known as S-waves, are seismic waves that arrive after primary waves (P-waves) during an earthquake. They are slower than P-waves and travel through the Earth by causing particles to move in a perpendicular motion to the direction of wave propagation.
For P waves, the two descriptive words are Primary (or compressional) waves, while for S waves, the two words are Secondary (or shear) waves.
S waves, or secondary waves, cannot move through liquids. This is because S waves require a solid medium to propagate, so in the presence of a liquid, they are absorbed and cannot travel.
The abbreviation for secondary waves is S-waves.

Secondary waves.
The subtypes of secondary waves (S-waves) are Love waves and Rayleigh waves. Love waves cause horizontal movement, while Rayleigh waves cause both horizontal and vertical movement. Both types of waves are surface waves that move along the Earth's crust.
