Crack detection in beam-like structures by nonlinear harmonic identification

The dynamic behavior of beam-like structures with fatigue cracks forced by harmonic excitation is characterized by the appearance of sub and super-harmonics in the response even in presence of cracks with small depth. Since the amplitude of these harmonics depends on the position and the depth of...
