The influence of inescapable imperfections associated with fiber arrangement in the filament
winding process on the burst pressure of a composite vessel is analyzed. Firstly, the …

The basic concept of the vibration based damage identification methods is that the dynamic
behaviour of a structure can change if damage occurs. Damage in a structure can alter the …

This work presents a combination of vibration-based method and speckle shearography in
order to identify, locate and quantify the damage in composite structures. The experiments …

The present study verifies the applicability of vibration-based Structural Health Monitoring
(SHM) to identify debonding in bi-clamped metal-composite bonded joints, which can be …

Experimental and numerical analyses were carried out in order to identify damage in metal-
composite bonded joints, which were manufactured from carbon-fiber reinforced polymers …

Abstract Structure Health Monitoring (SHM) has been applied in various application such as
aerospace, machinery and civil structures to maintain structure's safety and integrity …

Interrogation of composite structures for inherent damage is investigated implementing three-
tier analysis scheme. The analysis starts at the structure level where a general-purpose …

As civil infrastructure continues to age, the extension of service life has become a financially
attractive solution due to cost savings on reconstruction projects. Efforts to increase the …

Detection of damage on aircraft composite structures has been one of the major concerns of
operators during the last two decades. Structural health monitoring (SHM) systems consist …
