The Lamb wave inspection has emerged as a promising method for structural health monitoring and nondestructive testing. However, because of the highly dispersive and multimodal features, the Lamb wave mode separation has become a challenging problem. Based on the dispersion curve analysis, a new signal processing method is proposed in this study to solve this problem. First, a novel function based on the Hessian matrix is constructed to enhance the energy concentration of the dispersion curve in the time-frequency representation to reduce the dispersion effect. Subsequently, the constrained penalty function algorithm is developed for detecting dispersion curves. Finally, a mode reconstruction algorithm is developed to recover Lamb wave modes. The proposed method can separate overlapping wave modes and detect the crack fault by enhancing the time-frequency feature of the Lamb wave signal. Two experiments are carried out to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method for Lamb wave mode separation.
