Abstract

Abstract Lamb wave tomography can be used to evaluate structural integrity. The time-of-flight (TOF) data are usually recorded as input to the reconstruction algorithm. For composite materials, TOF estimation is complicated due to their anisotropy. To reduce the effects of anisotropy on image reconstruction, the TOF data of flawed plates are revised according to baseline data obtained from an unflawed plate. Tomographic images are reconstructed using the original and revised TOF data, respectively. Results show that images reconstructed using the revised TOF data have better visual quality and that TOF data revision can substantially reduce the artifacts resulting from anisotropy in defect detection of composite materials.
