During production or service life, lightweight components made of fibre-reinforced polymers (FRP) may suffer from different types of defects such as cracks or delamination, which may be detected, amongst others, with the help of ultrasonic lamb waves (LW). The study intends to illustrate the potentials of numerical models to assist the design of LW-based non-destructive testing (NDT) processes. For that, the complete NDT chain of an LW driven inspection system was supported by a Finite Element Analysis (FEA) using stringer-stiffened C FRP panels as an exemplary component. The study was divided in two publications: The first part focused on the description of the numerical model, illustration of its functionalities and – most importantly – the determination of LW related effects that were needed to design the inspection system (dispersion characteristics, excitation frequency, propagating modes etc.). In this part, the FEA driven design approach was first validated with self measured experimental data as well as experiments provided in literature. In the second step, the numerical model was applied for the performance of parameter studies in order to identify component specific aspects that proved important for the NDT process. Finally, general advices and FEA related working steps were derived from all findings to assist practitioners in the implementation of the technique. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
