Abstract: A guided wave-based method for localization of breathing delamination is presented in this investigation. The proposed technique utilizes one-way mixing of a dual-frequency fundamental antisymmetric Lamb modes with judiciously ...

Abstract: Abstract. The mechanical response of biological soft tissues is influenced by wall heterogeneity, including spatial variations in wall thickness. Traditional models for homogeneous soft tissues under uniaxial loading predict ...

Abstract: This study investigated the effect of collagen fiber tortuosity distribution on the biomechanical failure and prefailure properties of arterial wall tissue. An in-silico model of the arterial wall was developed using data ...

Abstract: In view of their higher sensitivity in localizing an incipient damage, methods of non-destructive evaluation based on the nonlinear wave-damage interactions have been of continued interest in the recent past. In this paper, ...
