Abstract—The article presents a method for identifying and locating damages in an aluminum plate using Lamb waves. For this, a network of PZT wafer type actuators/sensors is used to generate and detect Lamb waves. The damage location algorithm is sketched taking into account the network configuration of PZT sensors. The experimental results confirm the calculation procedure.
Index Terms—Tructural health monitoring, Lamb waves, PZT sensors/actuators, aluminum plate specimen.
