Recent years have seen a substantial increase in the application of machine learning (ML)
for automated analysis of nondestructive examination (NDE) data. One of the applications of …

Ultrasonic feature guided waves (FGW) have been found to exist in a variety of topographic
waveguides, such as welds, bends and stiffeners in plate-like structures. These FGWs are …

It is challenging to apply deep learning in professional fields that lack big data support,
especially in industrial structure health assessments using ultrasonic guided wave …

Topological insulator (TI) that possesses topologically protected characteristic of guiding the
wave against disorders and structural perturbations without backscattering has attracted …

Guided wave (GW)-based techniques have been extensively investigated and applied in
material characterization, damage detection, and structural health monitoring. A …

Steel T-welded joint structures have been largely applied in aerospace and marine
infrastructures. The weld length in T-weld joint structures is usually long, and it is difficult to …

Aircraft smart skin needs to integrate a large number of piezoelectric (PZT) elements and
wires for structural health monitoring (SHM), which not only add considerable weight to …

This study compared the microstructure and mechanical characteristics of AA6061-T6 joints
produced using friction stir welding (FSW), friction stir vibration welding (FSVW), and …

High-order harmonics and sub-harmonics that are engendered upon interaction between
surface Rayleigh waves and material flaws have been exploited intensively, for …

For large-scale structure inspection, the traditional ultrasonic inspection methods are time-
consuming and inefficient. Recently, many approaches based on ultrasonic guided waves …
