Mathematical modelling of nonlinear waves in layered waveguides with delamination

The propagation of nonlinear bulk strain waves in layered elastic waveguides has many applications, particularly its potential use for non-destructive testing, where a small defect in the bonding between the layers of a waveguide can lead to a catastrophic failure of the structure. Experiments have...
