Plant physiology and structure are constantly changing according to internal and external
factors. The study of plant water dynamics can give information on these changes, as they …

In this work, we studied the properties of acoustic guided waves travelling through plant
leaves under water stress. We used a laser-based ultrasound technique to study the …

The assessment of dispersive media may become a challenge due to the high attenuation
ratios, anisotropy and geometrical particularities of the specimen under study. Besides, non …

The non-Bragg defect mode (NBDM) of elastic surface waves is experimentally investigated
by inserting a defect in the middle of an antisymmetric periodic corrugated aluminum plate …

In this work we propose the use of a photoacoustic implementation to rapidly estimate,
without contact, mechanical properties of plant leaves. We implemented a laser-based …
