Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The present disclosure relates to a system for monitoring a structural component. The system may include an electromechanical device to generate guided waves having a measurement surface and a bonding agent disposed on the measurement surface and configured to engage with the surface of the structural component. The system may also include a heating element for heating the measurement surface, the bonding agent, and capable of heating a portion of the structural component surface. In addition, the system may include a clamp for retaining the measurement surface relative to the structural component.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A system for monitoring a structural component having a surface, comprising: an electromechanical device having a measurement surface, wherein the electromechanical device generates guided waves; a bonding agent disposed on said measurement surface and configured to engage with the surface of said structural component, engage with the surface of said structural component, wherein said bonding agent will soften upon application of heat and harden with cooli…
