Damage Detection in Composite Materials Using Lamb Wavemethod

Abstract

A composite material is a material which is made up of two or more constituent materials with variation in theirphysical or chemical properties that, when combined it produce a material withdifferent characteristics from the individual components. The individual components remain separate and distinct within the finished structure, differentiating composites from mixtures and solid solutions. Glass fiber is a material which consisting of numerous extremely fine fibers of glass. In this project both E-glass and S-glass materials were analyzed by using CAE tool abacus to detect damages of each material, and calculating results like stress, displacements, for both objects with and without damage, by knowing all these results with suitable tables and graphs project can be concluded e-glass and s-glass material behavior.
