Modeling wave propagation in damped waveguides of arbitrary cross-section
TL;DR: In this article, a semi-analytical finite element (SAFE) method for modeling wave propagation in waveguides of arbitrary cross-section is proposed, and the dispersive solutions are obtained in terms of phase velocity, group velocity, energy velocity, attenuation and cross-sectional mode shapes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Performance assessment and validation of piezoelectric active-sensors in structural health monitoring
TL;DR: A sensor diagnostics and validation process that performs in situ monitoring of the operational status of piezoelectric active-sensors in structural health monitoring (SHM) applications is presented in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI
Temperature effects in ultrasonic Lamb wave structural health monitoring systems.
TL;DR: The study shows substantial changes in Lamb wave amplitude response caused solely by temperature excursions, and can provide a basis for the compensation of temperature effects in guided-wave damage detection systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A stretchable ultrasound probe that can conform to and detect nonplanar complex surfaces and shows excellent electromechanical coupling, minimal cross-talk, and more than 50% stretchability is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Macro-fiber composite piezoelectric rosettes for acoustic source location in complex structures
TL;DR: An approach based upon the employment of piezoelectric transducer rosettes is proposed for passive damage or impact location in anisotropic or geometrically complex structures as discussed by the authors.
