This article explores the propagation of finite rectangular cross-section thin plates in a rectangular bar, discussing the impact of finite lateral width on mode density and extending the selective mode generation method. Experimental results show that single mode generation of A(0,0) and A(0,1) can be achieved in an aluminum bar.
Ultrasonic guided waves are used in non-destructive testing and structural health monitoring solutions for long-range inspection, in applications ranging from Civil Engineering to Aerospace. In order to ease the inspection process, it is generally preferable to generate a carefully selected single mode. Although single mode Lamb wave generation is not difficult to achieve in infinite plate-like structures, with carefully polarized or sized piezoceramic elements, for example, such selective generation is much more difficult in a rectangular bar. In this article, we consider the propagation along a thin plate of finite rectangular cross section, which corresponds to a rectangular bar. The finite lateral width leads to a greater density of modes compared to an infinite plate. The authors have previously addressed this matter and developed a methodology for the selective generation of modes in the harmonic regime. This article extends this methodology to selective mode generation for finite time excitation, such as bursts. Results are presented for single mode generation of A(0,0)and A(0,1)in an aluminum bar instrumented with eight piezoelectric transducers. The waveguide modal basis is calculated with the two-dimensional semi-analytical finite element method, and measurements are conducted using a three-dimensional laser-Doppler vibrometer. To illustrate the potential of the method for structural health monitoring purposes, the detection of a defect simulated by a pair of magnets placed at various positions over the bar width is demonstrated.
