The measurement of material non‐linearity using ultrasound is an attractive concept, offering the potential to detect fatigue damage earlier than is possible with conventional techniques. Despite this advantage and much work in the field the currently developed approaches are primarily limited to the lab environment. This is due to the difficulty in separating the material nonlinearity from that generated by equipment. This paper reports on an approach that eliminates this problem. When two shear waves interact a third wave is generated due to the material nonlinearity. This paper shows how this interaction can be used to measure material properties in damaged specimens. It goes on to show that this approach can be used to make measurements of material non‐linearity both across a specimen.
