Proceedings ArticleDOI
Acoustic emission waveforms in composite laminates under low velocity impact
TL;DR: In this paper, an instrumented impact testing system is used to record the contact force and the surface motion at locations away from the impact point, and the response of the plate due to localized sources is calculated using a modified laminate theory providing detailed information on the relationship between the impact load and the signals generated by the load.
Journal ArticleDOI
Calculation of the acoustic material signature of a layered solid
TL;DR: In this article, a theory for the calculation of the acoustic material signature of a multilayered elastic half-space overlain by a fluid is presented, where the solid layers are composed of homogeneous isotropic linearly elastic materials and are firmly bonded at the interfaces.
Journal ArticleDOI
Guided waves in a stiffened composite laminate with a delamination
TL;DR: In this paper, a specific structure is analyzed with different levels of complexities in an effort to determine the propagation characteristics of the waves in order to determine their propagation characteristics for effective damage identification.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lamb wave propagation in a plate with step discontinuities
TL;DR: In this article, the free-end Lamb wave reflection at a free end as well as the interaction of Lamb waves with upward and downward step discontinuities is solved using an analytical approach.
Journal Article
Wave theory of acoustic emission in composite laminates
TL;DR: In this paper, the relationship between the surface response and microfracture modes in composite laminates is studied to establish the theoretical background for waveform analysis of acoustic emission signals.
