The ultrasonic nonlinearity has been considered as a promising method to evaluate the material degradation, since it is sensitive to the minute variation of material properties. However, most researches were restricted to the nonlinear phenomena of bulk (longitudinal) wave propagation in the bulky medium. In the case of plate, however, the propagating elastic wave is Lamb wave of which characteristics are completely different with the bulk wave, and thus the separate study for the nonlinearity of Lamb wave is required. This paper reports the result of our basic study on the nonlinear phenomena of Lamb waves, which proposes conditions for practical application as well as for the cumulative propagation of quadratic harmonic frequency mode; (1) phase matching, ( 2) non-zero power flux, (3) group velocity matching, and (4) non-zero out-of-plane displacement.
