Modeling and testing of PZT and PVDF piezoelectric wafer active sensors (2006, methodology): “the methods used in conventional non-destructive evaluation (NDE), such as pitch-catch, pulse-echo, and phased arrays, have also been demonstrated experimentally with PWAS [8, 9].”
Structural impedance based damage diagnosis by piezo‐transducers (2003, background): “They employ conventional sensors, which can only extract details such as load or strain histories [10].”
Lamb wave generation with piezoelectric wafer active sensors for structural health monitoring (2003, background): “PIEZOELECTRIC WAFER ACTIVE SENSORS – PWAS In recent years, several investigators [10-12] have explored the generation of Lamb-waves with piezoelectric wafer active sensors (PWAS)[13].”
Overview of Piezoelectric Impedance-Based Health Monitoring and Path Forward (2003, methodology): “…and subsequently developed by Chaudhry et al. (1995, 1996), Sun et al. (1995a), Park et al. (1999a, 1999b, 2000a, 2000b, 2001), Giurgiutiu and Zagrai (2000), Giurgiutiu et al. (2002, 2003), Zagrai and Giurgiutiu (2001), Soh et al. (2000), Bhalla et al. (2002a, 2002b), and Naidu et al. (2002).”
Embedded non-destructive evaluation for structural health monitoring, damage detection, and failure prevention (2005, background): “For lack of a better term, Giurgiutiu et al. (2000) have called these embeddable transducers PWAS.”
Baseline-free Imaging Method based on New PZT Sensor Arrangements (2009, background): “In order to respond to any possible damage leading to failure of the structures, damages should be detected, evaluated, and if possible monitored, even though the structures are in services (Giurgiutiu, 2000; Boller, 2001; Yuan et al., 2003).”
Tuned Lamb Wave Excitation and Detection with Piezoelectric Wafer Active Sensors for Structural Health Monitoring (2005, methodology): “Most of the methods used in conventional NDE, such as pitch-catch, pulse echo, and phased arrays, have also been demonstrated experimentally with PWAS ( Giurgiutiu et al., 2002, 2003 ).”
