Reflection of Obliquely Incident Guided Waves by an Edge of a Plate

抄録

This paper analyzes the edge-reflection problem of obliquely incident guided waves in a plate. The generalized guided-wave theories in a plate, including the orthogonality of modes and the mode-decomposition method are summarized. The edge-reflection problem is solved on the basis of the mode-decomposition method. Some numerical results are presented and compared to experimental results.
