Design and Implementation of an Accurate, Portable, and Time-Efficient Impedance-Based Transceiver for Structural Health Monitoring

Reducing maintenance costs while increasing the safety and reliability, especially in moving structures, needs a reliable nondestructive analyzer. The aim of this research is to provide a practical solution for this problem based on high-frequency excitation of stationary and moving structures by propagating standing Lamb waves in the range of 1 to 1000 kHz. The proposed solution comprises of a co...
