A model for the ultrasonic detection of surface-breaking cracks by the scanning laser source technique
(2004-01)
Article
Open AccessA model for the scanning laser source (SLS) technique is presented. The SLS is a novel laser-based inspection method for the ultrasonic detection of small surface-breaking cracks. The generated ultrasonic signal is monitored ... -
Rayleigh wave correction for the BEM analysis of two-dimensional elastodynamic problems in a half-space
(Wiley and Sons, 2004-08)
Article
Open AccessA simple, elegant approach is proposed to correct the error introduced by the truncation of the infinite boundary in the BEM modelling of two-dimensional wave propagation problems in elastic half-spaces. The proposed method ... -
Thermoelastic generation of ultrasound by line-focused laser irradiation
(2003-12)
Article
Open AccessA two-dimensional theoretical model for the field generated in the thermoelastic regime by line-focused laser illumination of a homogeneous, isotropic, linearly elastic half-space is presented. The model accounts for the ... -
Use of reciprocity considerations for the two-dimensional BEM analysis of wave propagation in an elastic half-space with applications to acoustic emission
(2004-04)
Article
Open AccessA simple numerical treatment of the infinite boundary in the BEM analysis of two-dimensional wave propagation problems in elastic half-spaces is proposed to avoid the spurious reflections of non-decaying Rayleigh waves ...
