Detection and monitoring of axial cracks in cylindrical structures using torsional wave generated by piezoelectric macro-fiber composite
In cylindrical structures such as pipelines and pressure vessels, cracks are most likely to occur along the longitudinal (axial) direction and they can be fatal to the serviceability of the structures. Unfortunately, the conventional ultrasonic crack detection techniques, which usually use longitudi...
