Broadband plate-type acoustic metamaterial for low-frequency sound attenuation

TL;DR: In this paper, a plate-type acoustic metamaterial can serve to totally prohibit low frequency structure-borne sound at selective resonance frequencies ranging from 650 to 3500 Hz, where the relevant sound wavelength in air is about three orders of magnitude larger than the plate thickness.

Identification of cracks in thin-walled structures by means of wavenumber filtering

TL;DR: In this article, a signal processing of full wavefield data is proposed for detection, localization and visualization of a crack growth in thin-walled structures. But the proposed method only out-of-plane velocities are used.

Active health monitoring of an aircraft wing with embedded piezoelectric sensor/actuator network: I. Defect detection, localization and growth monitoring

TL;DR: In this article, an ultrasonic guided wave structural health monitoring (SHM) system was developed for aircraft wing inspection, where small, low-cost and light-weight piezoelectric (PZT) discs were bonded to various parts of the aircraft wing, in a form of relatively sparse arrays, for simulated cracks and corrosion monitoring.
