TLDR
In this article, a self-modulation mode of nonlinear acoustic vibrations of cracked defects has been analyzed and observed experimentally and attributed to the sum-frequency type resonance in a multi-degree of freedom system and include a subharmonic spectrum as a particular case.
Abstract
A self-modulation mode of nonlinear acoustic vibrations of cracked defects has been analyzed and observed experimentally. Spectral patterns of the self-modulation are attributed to the sum-frequency type resonance in a multi-degree-of-freedom system and include a subharmonic spectrum as a particular case. Both the subharmonic and self-modulation modes demonstrate a high localization around the defect and provide opportunities for early detection and recognition of damaged areas.

Nonlinear ultrasonic imaging method for closed cracks using subtraction of responses at different external loads.

TL;DR: This study performs fundamental experiments on a closed fatigue crack formed in an aluminum alloy compact tension (CT) specimen using the proposed subharmonic phased array for crack evaluation (SPACE) method and shows that this method is useful in extracting only the intensity change of responses related to closed cracks, while canceling the responses of objects other than cracks.

Modelling nonlinearity of guided ultrasonic waves in fatigued materials using a nonlinear local interaction simulation approach and a spring model.

TL;DR: It was shown that with the use of the wave from the low frequency regime it was easier to differentiate later stages of the crack development, being in contrary to waves in the high frequency regime, which allowed to clearly observe early stages ofThe damage detection and monitoring scheme in the field of Structural Health Monitoring based on utilising the nonlinear features of guided ultrasonic waves.
