Nondestructive Evaluation of the Depth of Cracks in Concrete Plates Using Surface Waves
(University of Waterloo, 2009-04-16)Concrete structures can often be modeled as plates, for example, bridges, tunnel walls and pipes. Near-surface damage in concrete structures mostly takes the form of cracking. Surface-breaking cracks affect concrete ... -
Terahertz Surface Plasmon Polariton-like Surface Waves for Sensing Applications
(University of Waterloo, 2009-07-30)Surface plasmon polaritons are electromagnetic surface waves coupled to electron plasma oscillation of metals at a metal-dielectric interface. At optical frequencies, these modes are of great interest because of their high ...
