Abstract:
This study focuses on static component generation (SCG) and its measurement wherein a group velocity mismatch (GVM) exists between the primary guided wave and the generated static component (SC). The SCGs by primary S0, A0, and SH0 waves are investigated. It is confirmed that the SCs are S0 mode. The GVM causes the temporal waveforms of the SCs to tend to increase in width with propagation distance. A feasible method is proposed accordingly for measurement of SCG with GVM using only lead zirconic titanate based transducers, wherein the SCs generated by two counter-propagating primary waves are modulated and superposed on each other.
