Abstract
Ultrasonic guided waves are used in non-destructive testing and structural health monitoring solutions for long-range inspection, in applications ranging from Civil Engineering to Aerospace. In order to ease the inspection process, it is generally preferable to generate a carefully selected single mode. Although single mode Lamb wave generation is not difficult to achieve in infinite plate-like structures, with carefully polarized or sized piezoceramic elements, for example, such selective generation is much more difficult in a rectangular bar. In this article, we consider the propagation along a thin plate of finite rectangular cross section, which corresponds to a rectangular bar. The finite lateral width leads to a greater density of modes compared to an infinite plate. The authors have previously addressed this matter and developed a methodology for the selective generation of modes in the harmonic regime. This article extends this methodology to selective mode generation for finite time excitation, such as bursts. Results are presented for single mode generation of A 0,0 and A 0,1 in an aluminum bar instrumented with eight piezoelectric transducers. The waveguide modal basis is calculated with the two-dimensional semi-analytical finite element method, and measurements are conducted using a three-dimensional laser-Doppler vibrometer. To illustrate the potential of the method for structural health monitoring purposes, the detection of a defect simulated by a pair of magnets placed at various positions over the bar width is demonstrated.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
