    Abstract Structural health monitoring techniques (SHM) for material damage identification have demonstrated higher sensitivity and accuracy when relying on the assessment of nonlinear features exhibited in the material response under ultrasonic wave propagation. In this paper, a novel nonlinear ultrasonic SHM method is introduced for localisation of impact damage in composite laminates using an array of surface-bonded sensors. Unlike existing algorithms, this method enables quick selection of a suitable signal transmission frequency based on the combined sensor-material response, it does not rely on baseline data or complex measurements of signal arrival time, and it allows identification of malfunctioning sensors to minimise damage localisation errors. The proposed technique is based on the transmission and reception of ultrasonic waves through the inspected panel. Initially, the functionality of the transducers is inspected by comparing the signal amplitude in both directions of sensor-to-sensor paths. Then a planar map of material nonlinearity parameter β is created, and the damage position is defined as the point of highest β amplitude. Experimental tests on three CFRP panels confirmed successful positioning of barely visible impact damage (BVID) within a range of 4–22 mm. Sensor functionality check was demonstrated on one of the composite laminates, and a malfunctioning transducer was detected. The results suggested that the presented method could be considered an improved alternative to existing SHM techniques for localisation of BVID in composite panels.

    In-situ measurement of viscosity advances the field of rheology, and aides the development of sensing systems for condition and performance monitoring of lubricated mechanisms. Many lubricated mechanisms, such as journal bearings or seals, are characterised by three-layer interfaces; an oil separating two solid (usually metallic) bodies. The viscoelastic study of the lubricating oil in layered systems is possible in-situ by means of ultrasonic reflection (Schirru et al. (2015)). General solutions exist for the reflection of longitudinal plane waves from multi-layered solid-fluid systems. Similar solutions can be applied to plane shear waves. The use of a quarter-wavelength intermediate matching layer improves the sensitivity of the ultrasonic measurement and overcomes problems of acoustic mismatch. This opens the possibility of using reflectance methods to measure engineering (metal-oil) bearing applications that are acoustically mismatched. In this paper, a rigorous mathematical model for wave propagation in a three-layer system is solved for the reflection coefficient modulus and validated using a quarter wavelength ultrasonic viscometer. The model was tested against experimental data for two Newtonian reference fluids, water and hexadecane, and for one non-Newtonian reference fluid, squalene plus polyisoprene (SQL + PIP), measured ultrasonically at frequencies between 5 and 15 MHz. The results are in agreement with the expected viscosity values for the reference fluids. Further, the viscosity measurement is not limited to the resonance frequency, but it is performed over a broad band frequency range. This is important to improve measurement confidence and accurate spectroscopy measurement for the determination of viscoelastic properties.
