The subject is proposed to carry out the theory and experimental research on no contact air-coupled array ultrasonic Lamb waves imaging testing technique for GLARE laminate structure's damages of aircraft. Aim to the actual fatigue damage property of GLARE laminate structure, this research subject try to establish a three dimensional interface lay mechanical model based on the multiple interface lay model theory, finite element and interface element method. Combined with the various research means such as theoretical analysis, numerical calculation, experimental testing and signal processing, the excitation and propagation mechanism and scattering characteristic of Lamb waves in GLARE laminate will be selective analyzed. Meanwhile, the interaction and scattering properties between Lamb waves with typical damages in GLARE laminate, and interrelation between Lamb waves signal with typical damages and acoustic parameter will also be studied selectively. Based on the numerical modeling and experiment means, a single side, air coupled ultrasonic array Lamb waves non-destructive testing mode will be adopted to detect damages in GLARE laminate structure. Through extracting and constructing linear and nonlinear acoustic parameter from the scattered Lamb waves and try to improve signal noise ratio, how to develop a higher resolution imaging method will be investigated. Then a new no contact, air coupled ultrasonic Lamb waves array imaging detection method for GLARE laminate structure of aircraft will be obtained. Based on the research work above, the air coupled array Lamb waves imaging testing prototype instrument for GLARE laminate structure will be developed and be used in field experimental research. The research subject will establish the theoretical and methodological basis of in service air coupled ultrasonic Lamb waves testing technology for GLARE laminate structure, and provide a new in service, in field rapid nondestructive technique for imaging testing GLARE laminate structure of modern aircraft.
