Lamb-Wave-Based Multistage Damage Detection Method Using an Active PZT Sensor Network for Large Structures

A multistage damage detection method is introduced in this work that uses piezoelectric lead zirconate titanate (PZT) transducers to excite/sense the Lamb wave signals. A continuous wavelet transformation (CWT), based on the Gabor wavelet, is applied to accurately process the complicated wave signal...
