A study on thermoelastic generation of narrowband ultrasonic lamb waves using a pattern source

Abstract

Guided ultrasonic waves are attractive for inspection of plate-like components that are produced by additive manufacturing. Recently, research has been focused on techniques that can perform non-contact testing and carry out an online inspection layer by layer while the component is being fabricated. We demonstrate a non-contact technique for generation of narrowband ultrasonic waves in an additively manufactured component using a spatial array illumination source that can be integrated onto the component. The wavelength-matched method enables the generation of specific Lamb wave modes which are detected using a two-wave mixing based interferometric technique.
