| Abstract: | In this report, the niche field of damage identification using phased array theory is explored. Piezoelectric transducers can send and receive wave signals. Upon using time delay between the several wave signals sent, a focused phased array can be established. The phased array is based on constructive interference and will create a signal of larger amplitude, which can be directed. To establish the successfulness of the focusing of the phased array, several experiments were conducted as presented in this study. Iterating over the time delay was found to be the best method to implement the phased array theory in damage identification. |
