Open Guided Waves: online platform for ultrasonic guided wave measurements [PDF]
Ultrasonic guided waves have been used successfully in structural health monitoring systems to detect damage in isotropic and composite materials with simple and complex geometry. A limitation of current research is given by a lack of freely available benchmark measurements to comparatively evaluate existing methods.

Numerical Investigation of Excitation of Various Lamb Waves Modes in Thin Plastic Films
Ultrasonic-guided waves are widely used for the non-destructive testing and material characterization of plates and thin films. In the case of thin plastic polyvinyl chloride (PVC), films up to 3.2 MHz with only two Lamb wave modes, antisymmetrical A0 ...

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.

PCA based stress monitoring of cylindrical specimens using PZTs and guidedwaves [PDF]
Since mechanical stress in structures affects issues such as strength, expected operational life and dimensional stability, a continuous stress monitoring scheme is necessary for a complete integrity assessment. Consequently, this paper proposes a stress

Novel method for detection of void defects under track slabs using air-coupled ultrasonic sensors
Void defects under track slabs are the main danger affecting the safe operation of high-speed railways. In the short high-speed railway maintenance periods, China’s high-speed railway line maintenance operations must quickly and dynamically determine ...

Deciphering acoustic emission signals in drought stressed branches: the missing link between source and sensor [PDF]
When drought occurs in plants, acoustic emission (AE) signals can be detected, but the actual causes of these signals are still unknown. By analyzing the waveforms of the measured signals, it should, however, be possible to trace the characteristics of ...

Rayleigh Wave Calibration of Acoustic Emission Sensors and Ultrasonic Transducers. [PDF]
Acoustic emission (AE) sensors and ultrasonic transducers were characterized for the detection of Rayleigh waves (RW). Small aperture reference sensors were characterized first using the fracture of glass capillary tubes in combination with a theoretical
