Abstract
This paper presents an approach for acousto-ultrasonic source (passive damage or impact) localization based on metal core piezoelectric fiber (MPF) rosettes. MPF is a new ty pe piezoelectric ceramic device with small size and has high directivity to sense Lamb waves. The response of surface-bonded MPF sensors to Lamb-wave fields is explored theoretical ly and experimentally. The good directional properties of MPF are used to determine the direction of propagation of the acoustic waves by mounting three MPF sensors in a rosette configuratio n. Two suitably spaced rosettes are used to locate the source of the ultrasound by taking the intersection of the directio n given by each rosette. The performance of the rosettes for source location is validated on an aluminum plate.
