Numerical Modeling Of Obliquely Incident Guided Wave Scattering By A Crack In A Laminated Composite Plate
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, we consider scattering by a guided wave incident obliquely on a surface breaking crack in a laminated composite plate, with a view to ultrasonic nondestructive assessment of cracks. The solution to this problem is the first step towards analyzing the general three-dimensional scattering problem. The method used for modeling is a hybrid method which combines finite element method with wave function expansion procedure. The reciprocity relations governing the reflection and transmission coefficients are established and are used to check the numerical accuracy. Also, the principle of energy conservation is used as another check for the accuracy of the numerical results. Numerical results for reflection and transmission coefficients are presented for an 8-layer cross-ply laminated plate.

Reflection of Obliquely Incident Guided Waves by an Edge of a Plate
This paper analyzes the edge-reflection problem of obliquely incident guided waves in a plate. The generalized guided-wave theories in a plate, including the orthogonality of modes and the mode-decomposition method are summarized. The edge-reflection problem is solved on the basis of the mode-decomposition method. Some numerical results are presented and compared to experimental results. [doi:1...
متن کاملA Numerical and Analytical Solution for the Free Vibration of Laminated Composites Using Different Plate Theories
An analytical and numerical solution for the free vibration of laminated polymeric composite plates with different layups is studied in this paper. The governing equations of the laminated composite plates are derived from the classical laminated plate theory (CLPT) and the first-order shear deformation plate theory (FSDT). General layups are evaluated by the assumption of cross-ply and angle-p...
متن کاملTransmission and Reflection Characteristics of a Concrete Block Wall Illuminated by a TM-polarized Obliquely incident wave
Typically, many of the modern buildings have concrete walls constructed from cinder block walls, that have periodic nature in their relative dielectric constant. This periodic nature excites higher-order Floquet harmonic modes at microwave frequencies, which leads to the propagation of scattered waves along with non-specular directions. Periodic structures exhibit different behaviors when illum...
