The estimation of the horizontal parameters of gravity waves by the monostatic Rayleigh Lidar

open access: yesScientific Reports
Monostatic Rayleigh Lidar is mainly used for the observation of the middle atmosphere temperature and vertical activity of gravity waves. It was thought that it could not be used for the study of the gravity waves horizontal activity.

MFRWA: A Multi-Frequency Rayleigh Wave Approximation Method for Concrete Carbonation Depth Evaluation

open access: yesBuildings
Carbonation depth is essential to determine the durability and predict the remaining service life of concrete structures. This study proposes a multi-frequency Rayleigh wave approximation method (MFRWA) to evaluate carbonation depth by exploiting the ...

Dispersion of Rayleigh Waves in a Microstructural Couple Stress Substrate Loaded with Liquid Layer Under the Effects of Gravity

open access: yesArchives of Acoustics, 2018
Bone loss is one of the serious health issues in bedridden patients or young generation due to lack of physical activities. Mechanical forces are exerted on the bones through ground reaction forces, liquid loadings and by other contraction activities of ...

Finite element simulations of surface effect on Rayleigh waves

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2018
Rayleigh waves influenced by surface effect are investigated by using finite element methods, in which eigenfrequency analysis are performed on a model composed of a half-space covered by the surface effect dominated domain.

Near field enhancements from angled surface defects : a comparison of scanning laser source and scanning laser detection techniques [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Enhancement of the Rayleigh wave signal amplitude at a surface defect, due to interference of incident, reflected and mode converted waves, has been reported by several authors, and it has been suggested that this could be used as a fingerprint of the ...

Defect feature extraction using surface wave interactions and time-frequency behavior [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In this paper we exploit the interaction of ultrasonic surface waves with surface cracks in order to extract defect characteristics. An experimentally validated computer model was developed to simulate laser generated surface waves interacting with ...

Development of attenuation and diffraction corrections for linear and nonlinear Rayleigh surface waves radiating from a uniform line source

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2016
In recent studies with nonlinear Rayleigh surface waves, harmonic generation measurements have been successfully employed to characterize material damage and microstructural changes, and found to be sensitive to early stages of damage process.

Scanning laser source and scanning laser detection techniques for different surface crack geometries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Standard test samples typically contain simulated defects such as slots machined normal to the surface. However, real defects will not always propagate in this manner; for example, rolling contact fatigue on rails propagates at around 25ยบ to the surface,
