\label{eq:eqChaleurApprox}  \end{equation}  Substituting low-energy experimental parameters ($\gamma^{-1} \approx$ 50 $\mu$m$^{-1}$, $S$ = 20 mm$^{2}$, $E$ = 10 mJ, $\rho$ = 1000 kg.m$^{-3}$, $C $C$  = 4180 J.kg$^{-1}$.K$^{-1}$) lead to a maximum increase of temperature of 3 K. This local increase of temperature gives rise to a local dilatation of the medium. The induced displacements can then lead to shear waves: this constitutes the \textit{thermoelastic regime}. To describe physically this thermoelastic regime, we take a homogeneous and isotropic medium and as the depth of absorption (about 50 $\mu$m) is hundred times smaller than the beam diameter (5 mm), we have adopted a 1D model. The stress $\sigma_{zz}$ is the sum between the axial strain component and the thermal expansion component \cite{scruby1990laser}:  \begin{equation}
