TY - JOUR A1 - Gravenkamp, Hauke A1 - Bause, F. A1 - Song, C. T1 - On the computation of dispersion curves for axisymmetric elastic waveguides using the scaled boundary finite element method JF - Computers & structures N2 - In this paper we propose an algorithm to compute specific parts of the dispersion curves for elastic waveguides. The formulation is based on an axisymmetric representation of the Scaled Boundary Finite Element Method, where the wavenumbers of propagating modes are obtained as solutions of a Hamiltonian eigenvalue problem. The novel solution procedure involves tracing selected modes over a given frequency range and computing the corresponding solutions by means of inverse iteration. The resulting algorithm is applied in the context of material characterization, where the efficiency of the computation is crucial.

T1 - Model Based Sensitivity Analysis in the Determination of Viscoelastic Material Properties Using Transmission Measurements through Circular Waveguides T2 - Physics Procedia N2 - Several ultrasonic approaches for material determination are formulated in terms of an (nonlinear) inverse problem, e.g. immersion technique (Castaings et al. (2000)) or plate-waveguide techniques (Marzani et al. (2012)). In this contribution we focus on cylindrical waveguides for ultrasonic material determination and especially on the sensitivity of recorded transmission signals to the material properties. We utilize composite scaled sensitivities to determine the information content that can be achieved by the setup to certain parameters and discuss the limitations of the approach.

Based on the spectral decomposition of the elasticity matrix as proposed by Theocaris, we generalize the one-dimensional analysis of the material model into three dimensions and discuss appropriate simplifications to reduce the amount of unknowns for the material description. Then, a decomposition approach that considers the real valued frequency dependence of the viscoelastic moduli and the real valued frequency dependence of their attenuation separately is proposed. The Scaled Boundary Finite Element Method is used for the efficient computation of the phase velocity dispersion and the modal wave fields given a frequency dependent but real valued viscoelasticity matrix. Utilizing the modal expansion approach, the transmitting and receiving transducer are taken into account to compute the modal amplitudes. Combining these modal amplitudes, the phase velocity dispersion and re-introducing the viscoelastic attenuation results in a transfer function of the viscoelastic waveguide including excitation and receiving conditions. The performance of the proposed simulation model is shown by comparison to measurements taken on a polypropylene sample.

T1 - Transient modeling of ultrasonic guided waves in circular viscoelastic waveguides for inverse material characterization JF - Measurement science and technology N2 - In this contribution, we present an efficient approach for the transient and time-causal modeling of guided waves in viscoelastic cylindrical waveguides in the context of ultrasonic material characterization. We use the scaled boundary finite element method (SBFEM) for efficient computation of the phase velocity dispersion. Regarding the viscoelastic behavior of the materials under consideration, we propose a decomposition approach that considers the real-valued frequency dependence of the (visco-)elastic moduli and, separately, of their attenuation. The modal expansion approach is utilized to take the transmitting and receiving transducers into account and to propagate the excited waveguide modes through a waveguide of finite length. The effectiveness of the proposed simulation model is shown by comparison with a standard transient FEM simulation as well as simulation results based on the exact solution of the complex-valued viscoelastic guided wave problem. Two material models are discussed, namely the fractional Zener model and the anti-Zener model; we re-interpret the latter in terms of the Rayleigh damping model. Measurements are taken on a polypropylene sample and the proposed transient simulation model is used for inverse material characterization. The extracted material properties may then be used in computer-aided design of ultrasonic systems.
