| Research Abstract |
In this study, a damage detection and monitoring methodology, referred to as "nonlinear piezoelectric impedance modulation method", has been proposed by utilizing the modulation in the electric impedance of a piezoelectric material attached or embedded in a structure due to the contact acoustic nonlinearity at the damaged part. It has been shown that this methodology, developed by combining and advancing two existing approaches, i.e., the piezoelectric impedance method and the nonlinear wave modulation spectroscopy, has a potential to detect incipient contact-type damages such as fatigue cracks and loose bolts sensitively.
