21. Notice however, that this expansion parameter is not based on the properties of the mechanical excitation itself but on the sample response to it.

23. According to Callen [1], a system is at equilibrium if Thermodynamics holds for such state.
24. Notice, that in Fig. 1(c) of our previous work [26], the maximum value of Γ reported was half of the value shown here. This discrepancy is due to a deficient filtering of the accelerometers used in Ref. [26]. The accelerations reported here have been corrected and checked against measurements done with a high speed camera.
