A novel structural health monitoring (SHM) methodology, based on nonlinear wave modulation spectroscopy, is presented for the detection of delamination cracks in composites. The basic element is a novel active nonlinear acousto-ultrasonic piezoelectric sensor enabling low-cost and wide-frequency operational bandwidth. The active sensor configuration involves two piezoceramic wafer actuators, each one excited with a low- and high-frequency signal respectively, and a piezoceramic sensor, all permanently bonded on the tested structure. Experiments are conducted on two sets of composite strips containing delamination cracks of different sizes. Measured results illustrate first the efficiency of the nonlinear ultrasonics methodology to detect delamination cracks, as well as, the potential and benefits of the new active sensor. The sensitivity of the active sensor response to the crack size and the applied high-frequency carrier signals at the actuators, vary at various frequency and voltage levels indicating the appropriate testing setup. Additionally repeatability of proposed SHM methodology is studied.
