His
research included a combined theoretical, numerical and experimental
study on the guided wave (GW) propagation mechanism in Honeycomb
Composite Sandwich Structure (HCSS) in the presence of high-density
(HD) core and damages/
disbonds/
delaminations.
The
fundamental contributions from his research work are the extensive
studies on higher-order wave modes, identification of HD-core and
disbond regions in the same sandwich structure and the development of a
fast and efficient global matrix method based 2D semi-analytical model
of GW propagation in an anisotropic layer on a semi-infinite medium.
