There are strong needs and requirements for on-line damage (delamination) detection and
health-monitoring techniques on composite structures. Vibration-based model-dependent …

Fiber reinforced composite laminates are increasingly replacing traditional metallic
materials. The manufacturing process and service of the composite laminates frequently …

This paper presents results of numerical simulation of the propagation of transverse elastic
waves corresponding to the A0 mode of Lamb waves in a composite plate. The problem is …

A quadratic isoparametric finite element formulation based on the first order shear
deformation theory is presented for the free vibration and transient response analysis of …

The coupled effect of manufacturing uncertainty and a critical service-life damage condition
(delamination) is investigated on the natural frequencies of laminated composite plates. In …

This paper demonstrates the effectiveness of certain structural health monitoring (SHM)
strategies based on propagation of guided elastic waves within thin-walled shell structures …

Delamination is one of the failure modes of functionally graded materials (FGM), resulting in
the critical change of vibration characteristics. The Chebyshev polynomials are commonly …

Lamb wave-based structural health monitoring offers excellent potential for real-time
delamination detection in laminated structures. It necessitates fast and accurate numerical …

The use of vibration-monitoring techniques as non-destructive methods for detection of
delaminations in layered composite beam and plate structures is a current field of interest for …

In this paper, the post-buckling analysis of a cracked fiber reinforced composite (FRC) beam
is investigated under a compressive load. In the solution of the problem, the finite element …
