Abstract
This paper presents numerical simulations and experimental measurements of longitudinal and shear bulk waves in composite materials, generated and detected with an air-coupled ultrasonic system. The transfer function of an anisotropic absorbing layered plate immersed in air is computed with the transfer matrix method, and the waveforms produced by transmission through a plate are simulated from the convolution of. reference waveform and the impulse response of the plate. The calculated waveforms compare well to those recorded experimentally, confirming that the waveforms recorded experimentally have the correct characteristics. It is demonstrated that it is possible to identify longitudinal and shear modes. Results are presented showing how this data may be used to recover the stiffness matrix of composite materials, using the angular variation of velocity of both modes.
