The propagation of ultrasonic guided waves in solids is an important area of scientific inquiry, primarily due to their practical applications for nondestructive characterization of materials, such as nondestructive inspection, quality assurance testing, structural health monitoring, and providing a material state awareness.

Ultrasonic guided waves in elliptical annular cylinders [PDF]
This paper studies the influence of cross-section ovalness or ellipticity on lower order axisymmetric guided wave modes in thin pipes. The second longitudinal mode L(0,2) and the fundamental torsional mode T(0,1) are studied, as these are of interest to current pipe inspection.

Large Area Detection of Microstructural Defects with Multi-Mode Ultrasonic Signals
Cyclic loading or other stresses can lead to development of cracks and crack growth in mechanical structures, leading to eventual failure. While ultrasound imaging can be used for non-destructive testing of such structures, conventional ultrasound ...

Modeling the Effect of Anisotropy in Ultrasonic-Guided Wave Tomography [PDF]
Most of the existing ultrasonic-guided wave tomography approaches to map structural changes in plate-like waveguides are based on the assumption of an isotropic material model. However, there are many other engineering applications that are made of anisotropic materials and structures.

On the Piezoelectric Detection of Guided Ultrasonic Waves [PDF]
In order to quantify the wave motion of guided ultrasonic waves, the characteristics of piezoelectric detectors, or ultrasonic transducers and acoustic emission sensors, have been evaluated systematically. Such guided waves are widely used in structural health monitoring and nondestructive evaluation, but methods of calibrating piezoelectric detectors ...
