The paper provides a state of the art review of guided wave based structural health
monitoring (SHM). First, the fundamental concepts of guided wave propagation and its …

Ultrasonic guided wave techniques are extensively applied in the non-destructive testing
and structural health monitoring (SHM) of oil and gas pipelines due to its advantages of wide …

One of the largest movers of the world economy is the oil and gas industry. The industry
generates billions of barrels of oil to match more than half the world's energy demands …

Mechanical properties of materials tend to deteriorate over time and thus become
responsible for cracks and malfunctions in mechanical components or civil structures. Non …

The application of temperature compensation strategies is important when using a guided
wave structural health monitoring system. It has been shown by different authors that the …

Despite being considered the safest means to transport oil and gas, pipelines are
susceptible to degradation. Pipeline integrity management (PIM) is implemented to lower the …

Long-range guided wave testing is a well-established method for detection of corrosion
defects in pipelines. The method is currently used routinely for above ground pipelines in a …

Shearography and thermography are optical techniques, both proven to be valuable tools
for material nondestructive evaluation. Papers on these topics, however, are scattered and …

In this work, we propose a crossed-coil magnetostrictive sensor consisting of a solenoid coil,
a toroidal coil, and a ferromagnetic patch for generating and detecting torsional waves for …

An extensive array of utility networks are buried underneath the ground surface and provide
essential services for society's daily life in terms of water, natural gas, electricity …
