Abstract:
This paper numerically and experimentally investigates the resonant behavior of one-way Lamb and SH (shear horizontal) mixing method in thin plates with quadratic nonlinearity. When the primary S0-mode Lamb waves and SH0 waves mix in the region with quadratic nonlinearity, both numerical and experimental results verify the generation of the resonant SH0 waves if the resonance condition [Formula: see text] is satisfied. Meanwhile, we find that the acoustic nonlinear parameter (ANP) increases monotonously with material quadratic nonlinearity, the length of the damage region and the frequency of the resonant wave. Furthermore, the damage region can be located by the time-domain signal of the resonant wave based on one-way S0-SH0 mixing method. This study numerically and experimentally reveals that one-way Lamb and SH mixing method is feasible to quantitatively evaluate and locate the damage region of quadratic nonlinearity in thin plates.
