Delamination in composite structures is characterized by a resonant cavity wherein a
fraction of an ultrasonic guided wave may be trapped. Based on this wave trapping …

We propose an outlier detection‐based statistical approach to identify and locate a defect in
composite plates using far fewer number of sensing points compared to conventional …

Structural health monitoring techniques (SHM) for material damage identification have
demonstrated higher sensitivity and accuracy when relying on the assessment of nonlinear …

Impact induced damages in stiffened composite structures are usually settled with
constrained design criteria and recurring maintenance tasks, that affect weight savings …

This study proposes a complete noncontact laser ultrasonic wavefield imaging technique to
automatically detect and visualize hidden delamination and debonding in composite …

This work proposes a novel hybrid signal processing technique to extract information on
