The authors have recently reported on the attractive properties of shear-horizontal type
feature guided (SH B) waves for the inspection of 90° plate bends. Further to this, here the …

Feature-guided waves (FGW) have emerged as a promising technique for structural health
monitoring as they are well confined in local features such as bends and welds. In this …

Structural health monitoring (SHM) became a part of the modern approach for aircraft design–
damage tolerance. This thesis deals with one of the leading SHM methods–ultrasonic …

Fiber reinforced composite materials have been increasingly used in high performance
structures such as aircraft and large wind turbine blades. 90◦ composite bends are common …

abstract The authors have recently reported on the attractive properties of shear-horizontal
type feature guided (SHB) waves for the inspection of 901 plate bends. Further to this, here …

Recent research by the authors has revealed the presence of shear horizontal-type of
feature-guided (SH B) waves in plates with 90˚ transverse bends. The SH B mode is non …
