Q2. What are the contributions mentioned in the paper "Guided wave phase velocity measurement using multi-emitter and multi-receiver arrays in the axial transmission configuration" ?
Minonzio et al. this paper proposed a guided wave phase velocity measurement using multi-emitter and multi-receiver arrays in the axial transmission configuration using a probe consisting of two separated emission and reception arrays in contact.
Q3. What are the values of the Lamb phase velocities?
The values of the Lamb phase velocities depend on three physical parameters: thethickness e and the transverse and longitudinal velocities, denoted cT and cL.32
Q4. What is the number of experimental singular values n?
The number ofexperimental singular values σn is equal to minimum size of the arrays, i.e. the minimum between NE and NR, equal in the following to NE.
Q5. What is the resolution condition for the S2 backward wave?
Following the resolution condition [Eq. (11)], two velocities are resolved when the ratio λ/LR is less thanthe velocity difference Δc/c.
Q6. What is the scalar product of the reception singular vector?
16 The scalar product ( ),pw nf ce U can be interpreted as the spatial Fourier transform of the reception singular vector Un(xR), theMinonzio et al. JASA20spatial vector k being equal to 2π f/c.
Q7. What is the Norm function for the acoustic wave?
In this case, the Norm function is given by the scalar product ( ) ( ) 2 , ,pw pw nf c f ce e equal to( ) 2R, sinc n n c cNorm f c f L c c π ⎛ ⎞−= ⎜ ⎟ ⎝ ⎠ , (10)with LR the length of the reception array.
Q8. What is the frequency of the two probes?
The 1 MHz probe [Fig. 3(a)] presents a second harmonic bandwidth, for f ranging from 2.5 to 4 MHz, i.e. for fe ranging from 5 to 8 MHz.mm.
Q9. What is the fe of the two probes?
Results are shown for a variable phase velocity c at a fixed frequency : f.e = 1.6 MHz.mm, with the 1 MHz probe (a) and f.e = 3.8 MHz.mm with the 2 MHz probe (b).
Q10. What is the difference between the amplitude of a guided mode and its width?
If the amplitude of a guided mode decreases along the array, due toattenuation or geometric dispersion, the resolution function, defined by Eq. (10), will be affected in two ways: its maximum will decrease and its width will increase.
