Destructive identification approaches are no longer in favor since the advent of
nondestructive evaluation approaches, as they are accurate, rapid, and cheap. Researchers …

The main emphasis of this paper is placed on the effectiveness of the proposed optimization
method in material identification. The primary motivation of integrating GA, ACO and PSO is …

An original mixed numerical-experimental identification method was proposed and used to
predict the bending modulus of 3D woven composites. Four kinds of textile composites were …

The laser linear scanning method is proposed to measure the modal shape of fiber-
reinforced composite thin plate with high efficiency and precision. First, by establishing the …

The demand for composite materials is increasing due to their great superiority in material
properties, eg, lightweight, high strength and high corrosion resistance. As a result, the …

This study presents a feasible identification method for composite materials that adopts the
combined use of the Fourier method, a weighted least squares method and the mode shape …

Experimental modal analysis (EMA) with oblique excitation (ie oblique impact testing) is
useful in improving the long test time problem of conventional EMA with normal excitation (ie …

Researchers have been investing much time and efforts in investigating non-destructive
vibrational methods. Accuracy, repeatability, convergence and robustness are the important …

One of the main issues of composite materials is related to the difficulty of characterising the
full set of material properties at both mesoscopic and microscopic scales. Indeed, classical …

Résumé L'inconvénient principal des méthodes de caractérisation classiques est lié à
l'impossibilité de pouvoir déterminer les constantes techniques d'élasticité dans le cas 3D …
