The paper presents the experimental study on the inter-modulation method for the diagnostics of concrete elements. The tests were conducted on a concrete plate subjected to ultrasonic waves and low frequency vibrations. The nonlinear acoustic effects, recorded in the experiments, made it possible to detect the presence of damaged zones. Further studies are necessary to establish the relation between the sidebanes of frequency spectra and the size of the damaged zone.

Nonlinear Acoustic

The paper investigates experimentally the effect of low-frequency vibration on nonlinear vibro-acoustic wave modulations applied to the detection of Barely Visible Impact Damage (BVID) in a composite plate. Finite Element (FE) modeling was used in a pretest stage to identify different motion scenarios of delaminated surfaces and relate them to natural frequencies of the damaged plate. In particular the opening-closing and frictional sliding actions of the defected interfaces have been considered. Subsequently, the identified frequencies have been used for low frequency excitation in nonlinear acoustic experiments on a composite plate with impact damage.

The paper presents the experimental study on the diagnostics of concrete elements with the use of nonlinear acoustic effects. The tests were conducted on a concrete plate subjected to ultrasonic waves modulated with and without an additional low frequency actuator. The experimental results showed that the new method based on the direct modulation of diagnostic ultrasonic waves also provided sub-harmonic frequencies that indicated the presence of damage. The new method does not require a low frequency actuator for generation of low frequency oscillations, and therefore, is more suitable for practical application.
