Acoustic emission-based monitoring of fatigue damage in CFRP-CFRP adhesively bonded joints
Adhesively bonded joints are being increasingly applied in modern structures. However, manufacturing defects and particularly harsh operative conditions may cause local debonding and catastrophic failures. Structural health monitoring (SHM) and non-destructive testing (NDT) procedures are then needed to evaluate the in-service structural integrity of ...
