Characterization of dispersive ultrasonic Rayleigh surface waves in asphalt concrete
This research focuses on the application of ultrasonic Rayleigh surface waves to nondestructively characterize the mechanical properties and structural defects (non-uniformly distributed aggregate) in asphalt concrete. An efficient wedge technique is developed in this study to generate Rayleigh surface waves that is shown to be effective in characterizing Rayleigh waves in this highly viscoelastic (attenuating) and heterogeneous medium. Experiments are performed on an asphalt-concrete beam produced with uniformly distributed aggregate. Ultrasonic techniques using both contact and non-contact sensors are examined and their results are compared. Experimental results show that the wedge technique along with an air-coupled sensor appears to be effective in characterizing Rayleigh waves in asphalt concrete. Hence, measurement of theses material properties needs to be investigated in non-uniformly distributed aggregate material using these techniques.
