Abstract
Inspection of adhesively bonded metallic plates, commonly used in aircraft structures, remains challenging for modern non-destructive testing (NDT) techniques. When a probing ultrasound (US) wave interacts with the plate boundaries, it produces multiple propagating guided waves (or Lamb modes). Analysis of these waves can be complicated due to a strong geometrical dispersion. However, recent studies showed that for specific frequencies zero-group velocity (ZGV) modes exist. Any changes in a bounded structure, like delaminations, drastically alter the conditions for zero-group velocity waves, thus making this method highly sensitive for NDT applications. Laser ultrasound (LU) provides a very broad bandwidth of the generated waves, thus it is a feasible tool for a spectroscopy-based investigation of the ZGV modes. In this paper, we demonstrate an application of high-repetition rate LU with a non-contact fiber-optic Sagnac interferometer on receive for high resolution imaging of delaminations in a structure consisting of 3 epoxy-bonded aluminum plates. The investigation is supported by numerical analysis of Lamb waves existing in the structure to determine ZGV modes sensitive to delaminations at particular bonding interfaces. Tracking the selected modes permits imaging and identification of defects. We also show that mean frequency estimation of the ZGV modes can improve the contrast-to-noise ratio compared to an amplitude of the single ZGV frequency.
