Study of transient wave propagation in plates using double pulse TV holography. In International Conference on Advances in Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences. Madeira- Portugal. p. 2216-2221. ISBN 0-9657001-6-X0-9657001-6-Xhttp://hdl.handle.net/10198/6543This work presents a numerical and experimental study of the transient response of an isotropic plate. A low mass impact is used to generate the bending wave propagation. Displacements due to the bending wave propagation were assessed using an out-of-plane double pulse TV holography set-up. A PZT transducer is used to record the impact force and its temporal evolution. A novel experimental technique is presented for determination of the stress field in the plate using the out-of-plane displacement field and image-processing techniques. A numerically simulation of the transient response on the plate was carried out with an explicit ABAQUS® module. Finally, the comparisons between numerical and experimental results are presented.engWave propagationPlatesTV holographyconference paper
