Understanding and analysing the complex phenomena related to
elastic wave propagation has been the subject of intense research
for many years and has enabled application in numerous fields of
technology, including structural health monitoring (SHM). In the
course of the rapid advancement of diagnostic methods utilising
elastic wave propagation, it has become clear that existing methods
of elastic wave modeling and analysis are not always very useful;
developing numerical methods aimed at modeling and analysing these
phenomena has become a necessity. Furthermore, any methods
developed need to be verified experimentally, which has become
achievable with the advancement of measurement methods utilising
laser vibrometry.
"Guided Waves in Structures for SHM" reports on the simulation,
analysis and experimental investigation related propagation of
elastic waves in isotropic or laminated structures. The full
spectrum of theoretical and practical issues associated with
propagation of elastic waves is presented and discussed in this one
study.
Key features: Covers both numerical and experimental aspects of
modeling, analysis and measurement of elastic wave propagation in
structural elements formed from isotropic or composite
materialsComprehensively discusses the application of the Spectral
Finite Element Method for modelling and analysing elastic wave
propagation in diverse structural elementsPresents results of
experimental measurements employing advanced laser technologies,
validating the quality and correctness of the developed numerical
modelsAccompanying website (www.wiley.com/go/ostachowicz) contains
demonstration versions of commercial software developed by the
authors for modelling and analyzing elastic wave propagation using
the Spectral Finite Element Method
"Guided Waves in Structures for SHM" provides a state of the art
resource for researchers and graduate students in structural health
monitoring, signal processing and structural dynamics. This book
should also provide a useful reference for practising engineers
within structural health monitoring and non-destructive
testing.
