Modeling of low-frequency acoustic NDE to detect delaminations in multilayer polymer-composite structures by Shun Hsyung Chang, Sergey Shevtsov, Valeriy Chebanenko, Natalie Snezhina

“…The dispersion analysis of antisymmetric (A0) and symmetric (S0) Lamb waves and horizontally polarized shear waves (SH0) for such a panel, with given engineering constants, and subsequent finite element (FE) study showed that only A0 waves generated at sound frequencies can be used for delamination diagnostics by registering of out-of-plane velocities at surface points of the tested structure using a simple laser vibrometer. It is shown that due to sufficient sensitivity, noise immunity, and reliability, the proposed method of acoustic testing of thin-walled composite parts can be effectively used in production conditions.…”
