Physics-informed neural networks for modeling Lamb-wave excitation in an elastic waveguide

H. Dong, M. Rébillat, Eric Monteiro, N. Mechbal

A physics-informed neural network (PINN) is developed for modeling time-harmonic Lamb-wave excitation in a two-dimensional elastic waveguide under surface loading. The displacement and stress fields are represented by the network, and its trainable weights are determined by enfor…

Rank-Reduction Autoencoder (RRAE): A Breakthrough Nonlinear Model-Order Reduction Framework for Next-Generation Structural Damage Detection

Sebastian Rodriguez, B. Ferrándiz, Marc R'ebillat, N. Mechbal, A. Ammar, F. Chinesta

Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) aims to monitor in real-time the health state of engineering structures. For thin structures, Lamb Waves (LW) are particularly effective for SHM applications. A bonded piezoelectric transducer (PZT) generates LW in the form of a short tone burst…

A Physics-Informed Matching Pursuit Framework for Damage Detection in Pipes

B. Ferrándiz, Sebastian Rodriguez, R. Hodé, L. Dolbachian, N. Mechbal, F. Chinesta, et al.

Guided wave testing (GWT) is widely employed nowadays in the structural health monitoring (SHM) of plate-like and tubular components, offering long-range inspection capabilities and sensitivity to local geometric and material discontinuities. However, practical use remains challe…
