Variable Thickness in Plates—A Solution for SHM Based on the Topological Derivative

The topological derivative tool is applied here in structural health monitoring (SHM) problems to locate small defects in a material plate with complex geometry that is subject to permanent multifrequency guided waves excitation. Compared to more standard SHM methods, based in measuring the time-lag...
