A finite element approach for modeling of acoustic emission sources and signal propagation in hybrid multi-layered plates is presented. Modeling results are validated by Laser vibrometer measurements and comparison to calculated dispersion curves. We investigate hybrid plates as typically found in composite pressure vessels, composed of fiber reinforced polymers with arbitrary stacking sequences and attached metal or polymer materials. Hybrid plate thickness, the ratio between anisotropic and isotropic materials and material properties are varied. Lamb-wave propagation in a geometry representative of a pressure vessel is modeled. It is demonstrated, that acoustic emission sources in multi-layered structures can cause Lamb-waves superimposed by guided waves within the individual layers. |
