Various techniques have emerged in the past few years for localizing the acoustic source in
an anisotropic plate. The wave front shape-based approach, one of the recent additions to …

In this study, a novel method for improving the simulation of wave propagation in
Peridynamic (PD) media is investigated. Initially, the dispersion properties of the nonlocal …

Exploiting scattering and reflection related data of ultrasonic Lamb wave interactions with
damage is a common approach to health monitoring of thin-walled structures. Using thin …

The use of a flat‐facet finite element with three nodes and six degrees of freedom per node
for modeling of linear wave‐propagation events is discussed. The triangular shell finite …

In recent years, Higher Order Modes Cluster (HOMC) guided waves have been considered
for ultrasonic testing of plates and pipes. HOMC guided waves consist of higher order Lamb …

In this work, we report on the formulation and detailed stability analysis of a dynamic multi-
scale scheme involving two different local computational strategies for modeling of elastic …

There is much active research in the area of structural health monitoring (SHM) of
lightweight structures to detect small levels of damage. The SHM system should be ideally …

Acoustic emission (AE) technique, which uses the occurrence of AE phenomena, is a
powerful monitoring tool that finds tremendous applications in engineering. Owing to the …

The necessity of coupling different numerical techniques arises in many practical
engineering problems. Among other, coupled models are common to the so-called multi …
