Surface Wave Velocity-Stress Relationship in Uniaxially Loaded Concrete

“…3,4 The influence of texture, temperature, and microstructural changes on the third-order elastic constants of metals has been widely investigated. 4 Very recently, Payan et al 5 determined the thirdorder elastic constants from the ultrasonic wave velocity measurements in uniaxially compressed concrete specimens.…”

Nondestructive Investigation of Stress-Induced Damage in Concrete

“…The changes in the propagation velocities of ultrasonic waves due to the state of strain (or stress) in an elastic solid are generally referred to as acoustoelastic effects. Acoustoelastic effects have long been investigated in numerous studies concerning metallic substances [1][2][3]. Only very recently, this effect has been measured in concrete under low levels of stress [4][5][6].…”

Ultrasonic probes simultaneously producing one longitudinal and two shear waves and their potential applications

“…Certainly high accuracy is desired. However, factors affecting the measurement accuracy using ultrasound can come from texture [1], [2], stress [1], [3]- [5], etc which all alter the ultrasonic velocities in the material. In the other word, if the thickness of the material is given, ultrasonic velocity variations may be applied to measure the stress and texture [1]- [5].…”

In [1], effects of statically applied stresses on the velocity of ultrasound in the material were studied at room temperature using the combination of three standard alone ultrasonic transducers (UTs); namely one longitudinal (L), one vertically polarized shear (S ⊥ ) and one horizontally polarized shear wave (S // ).…”
