A Fully Optical Laser Based System for Damage Detection and Localization in Rail Tracks Using Ultrasonic Rayleigh Waves: A Numerical and Experimental Study by Masurkar, Faeez

“…The present study focuses on investigating the structural integrity of rail track sections of the high-speed railways using the Rayleigh waves generated and sensed using a fully non-contact optical Laser system. The raw broadband beam of the excitation laser was converted to a narrowband beam using a customized optical system, whereas the propagating Rayleigh waves were sensed using a three-dimensional (3D) scanning laser Doppler vibrometer (3D-SLDV) system. …”
