In this study, we present the characterisation of damage in polymer concrete using coda waves interferometry (CWI). The latter takes into account the multi-scattered acoustic waves, whose travelling distances are considerably longer than the one corresponding to the direct wave (emitter-receiver direct distance). Experimentally, we prove that CWI is not always appropriate to detect damage. Therefore, we propose an original approach through which the interaction CWI with damage is optimised. This is done using nonlinear resonance (NR) method, where bending modes are excited, at the time when acoustic waves are multi-scattered. Experiments show an important increase in the sensitivity to damage with interesting perspectives in terms of damage location and characterisation.

Considerable and continuing interest has been shown in the thin film transducer fabrication for surface acoustic waves (SAW) in the past few years. Due to the high degree of miniaturization, compatibility with silicon integrated circuit technology, simplicity and ease of design, this new technology has played an important role in the design of new devices for communications and signal processing. Among the commonly used piezoelectric thin films, ZnO generally yields superior electromechanical properties and is expected to play a leading role in the development of SAW devices.

For many solitary wave applications, various approximate models have been proposed. Certainly, the most famous solitary wave equations are the K-dV, BBM and Boussinesq equations. The K-dV equation was originally derived to describe shallow water waves in a rectangular channel. Surprisingly, the equation also models ion-acoustic waves and magneto-hydrodynamic waves in plasmas, waves in elastic rods, equatorial planetary waves, acoustic waves on a crystal lattice, and more. If we describe all of the above situation, we must be needed a solution function of their governing equations. The Tan-cot method is applied to obtain exact travelling wave solutions to the generalized Korteweg-de Vries (gK-dV) equation and generalized Benjamin-Bona- Mahony (BBM) equation which are important equations to evaluate wide variety of physical applications. In this paper we described the soliton behavior of gK-dV and BBM equations by analytical system especially using Tan-cot method and shown in graphically.
