In recent years, the study of thermoelastic waves generated by lasers has been undertaken by several researchers because the technique provides an efficient non-contact technique for generation and detection of ultrasonic waves. Laser-generated ultrasonic waves have diverse applications ranging from material characterization to defect characterization. Transient ultrasonic guided waves generated by a pulsed laser in anisotropic infinite plate are investigated in this article. An exact analytical method is adopted for this purpose. The governing equations and boundary conditions are first transformed from spatial-time domain into wavenumber-frequency domain using Fourier Transform. After solving these equations and satisfying the boundary conditions in the wavenumber-frequency domain, the Cauchy's residue theorem is used to get the response in the spatial domain and then the numerical integration is used to eventually obtain the response in time domain. Results for dispersion and transient guided waves in infinite silicon nitride (Si3N4) plates are presented. Numerical results show that pulsed laser excites mainly the lowest Lamb modes, namely, the lowest symmetric (S0) and antisymmetric (A0) modes. They also show that the transient response is dominated by the antisymmetric mode A0 which shows dispersion characteristic. This study provides a quantitative model for laser generated ultrasonic waves in an anisotropic plate and can be used for non-destructive evaluation. |
