Abstract

This chapter deals with the development of a novel magnetostrictive sensor/actuator that is used to generate ultrasonic guided waves. Instead of attaching a sensor to the structure to generate guided waves, this describes using part of the structure to be monitored as the sensor in the ideal case, or adding a joint-weld or deposit in the less than ideal case. Results obtained via this new development are presented, and compared with findings obtained through use of a commercial magnetostrictive sensor.
