Key industrial equipment (such as pipelines, aircraft structure and tanks) should meet the requirements for reliability, integrity and safety for a long-term operation. During its service, defects that might be caused by natural disasters or external impacts could lead to a significant reduction in a structure’s strength and fatigue life. Therefore, structural health monitoring techniques, which are capable of achieving continuous monitoring and on-line damage detection, are important for increasing the service life and reducing the sustainment costs of key industrial equipment. Guided waves-based structural health monitoring technology is a multidisciplinary study which requires a deep understanding of materials, sensors, modeling forms, electronic circuits, signal processing methods, and diagnostic algorithms. Therefore, this book provides the readers with a summary of the fundamental knowledge as well as methods of ultrasonic guided waves and introduces them to some case studies of...
