Phased array theroy can controll the Lamb wave beem steering in certain range by adding the time delay to the signals. Phased array theory is used to identify the damge in the structure. One dimensional PZT array is restricted in monitoring distance. Two parellel PZT sensors arrays are utilized to monitor the CFPR structure to extend the monitoring distance and to improve the precision of the damage locatilization. The experiment is done on the CFPR structure by using two parellel PZT arrays to detect the damage in the structure. The results of the experiment is shown on the mapped image. Gray-scale in the mapped image from dark to light corresponds to the signal amplitude from low to high. The highlight of the mapped image is the damage location in the structure. The monitoring results in the CFPR structure by two parellel PZT arrays is accurate and identical.

The aim of this paper is to evaluate the use of the Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) technique based on the concept of electromechanical impedance for the assessment of low-energy impact damage in laminated carbon-fiber composite plates. The experiments were carried-out by using an especially designed pendulum, and were planned in such a way to accommodate a range of test conditions, such as impact energy and dimension of the impacting piece. Also, it was investigated the influence of the frequency band in which the impedance functions are measured. Additionally, statistical metamodels were built aiming at establishing functional relations between the values of the damage metric and impact energy for single and multiple impacts. The obtained results demonstrate the capability of the monitoring method to identify various damage levels corresponding to different impact conditions.
