Abstract
Lamb waves are guided waves that propagate in thin plate/shell structures. Taking advantage of recent advances and technical breakthroughs in sensor technology, manufacturing, electronic packaging, signal processing, informatics, diagnostics, applied mechanics and material sciences, damage identification and structural health monitoring (SHM) techniques using Lamb waves have been the subject of intensive research and development in the past decades. Now on the verge of maturity for diverse engineering applications, this emerging technique has exciting potential to facilitate continuous and automated surveillance of the integrity of engineering structures in a cost-effective manner.
