EVALUATION OF MATERIAL NONLINEARITY IN FATIGUED SAMPLES USING AN IMPROVED LAMB-WAVE NONLINEAR PARAMETER by A. Masurkar, Faeez

“…The material nonlinearity is also evaluated using a Physics based nonlinear parameter that depends on the second and third order nonlinear elastic constants and is independent of the propagation distance thereby giving the global material nonlinearity. It is found that for a pristine state, the peak of amplitude-based parameter equals the physics based one and for a fatigued state, the amplitude-based parameter keeps increasing with an increase in fatigue damage. …”
