Application of Macrofiber Composite for Smart Transducer of Lamb Wave Inspection

Macrofiber composite (MFC) has been developed recently as a new type of smart material for piezoelectric transducers. It shows advantages over traditional piezoelectric ceramic materials (PZT) including the method of application, sensitivity, and cost. It can be embedded on the structure, which prov...
