Corrosion damage presents significant challenges to the safety and reliability of connected vehicles. However, traditional non-destructive methods often fall short when applied to complex automotive structures, such as bolted lap joints. To address this limitation, this study introduces a novel corrosion monitoring approach using Lamb wave-based weighted fusion imaging methods.

This paper presents a systematic and general method for Lamb wave-based crack size quantification using finite element simulations and Bayesian updating. The method consists of construction of a baseline quantification model using finite element simulation data and Bayesian updating with limited Lamb wave data from target structure. The baseline model correlates two proposed damage sensitive features, namely the normalized amplitude and phase change, with the crack length through a response surface model.
