Broadband leaky Lamb waves excited by optical breakdown in water

Optical breakdown of water is used as a sound source to excite a broadband set of leaky Lamb waves in submerged aluminum plates. The source is shown to simultaneously excite guided modes spanning 0.1–5 MHz in frequency and 0–0.8 mm−1 in wavenumber. The measured response overlaps well with dispersion...
