The Phenomenon of Continuous Mode Conversion of Lamb Waves in CFRP Plates

Article Preview

Abstract:

The effect of mode conversion of Lamb waves is a well known phenomenon. Lamb waves occur in multiple modes, which can transform into each other under special conditions. Typically mode conversion takes place at discrete positions inside a structure, e.g. damages and edges. However, we observed a continuous mode conversion in a multi-layer composite plate. The symmetric S0-mode converts continuously into the A0-mode without passing a macroscopic discontinuity. In the paper this phenomenon of continuous mode conversion is investigated experimentally as well as numerically.
