This paper provides a state-of-the-art review on adhesively bonded joints (ABJs) for
composite materials and structures, with a focus on the open literatures from 2016 to 2023 to …

In this article, we present an overview of recent progress in non-contact remote optical
detection of ultrasound in application to nondestructive testing and evaluation of materials …

Abstract The Synthetic Aperture Focusing Technique (SAFT) is an imaging algorithm used in
laser ultrasonics (LU) to visualise the appearance of defects. However, ultrasound excited …

Additive manufacturing (AM) is an emerging technique for efficient fabrication of individually
tailored and complex geometry parts. The fabrication process is prone to induce various …

Laser ultrasonic technique has been increasingly implemented for nondestructive testing
and structural health monitoring. However, the poor signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and low …

Abstract The Laser Ultrasonic (LU) technique has been widely studied. Detected ultrasonic
signals can be further processed using Synthetic Aperture Focusing Techniques (SAFTs), to …

An accurate frequency-domain synthetic aperture focusing technology (F-SAFT) based on 2-
D equivalent velocity mapping is proposed for laser ultrasonic testing (LUT) to detect and …

Defect inspection of braided carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) is very difficult due to its
nonhomogeneity, anisotropy, and sensitivity to coupling agents. This paper presents a …

Carbon fiber composites are a popular design material due to their high specific strength.
The directional strength of woven composites can be customized by changing the …

Multilayer plates are widely used as structural components, especially in high-tech
industries. However, compared to much simpler homogeneous plates, they pose unique …
