Guided Wave Energy Transfer in Composite Sandwich Structures and Application to Defect Detection

<div>Wave pattern at the excitation frequency 75 kHz in different regions of the plate for (I) <i>t</i> = 0.09 ms, (II) <i>t</i> = 0.15 ms, (III) <i>t</i> = 0.21 ms, and (IV) <i>t</i> = 0.27 ms. The dotted lines show the approximate location of the laminate skins, and the arrows show the direction of propagation.</div>
