All <em>mechanical waves</em> require a physical medium through which to travel.  If there isn't any, then mechanical waves don't travel.

Mechanical waves are the waves where physical particles are doing the waving.  They include sound waves, ocean waves, ripples on a pond, clarinet waves, Slinky waves, guitar-string waves, rope waves, etc.
