Application of the Dual-Loaded Modulated Scatterer Technique to Multilayered Material Evaluation

Abstract

Health monitoring of infrastructure is an important concern. There are a number of nondestructive testing techniques that have been developed for this purpose. Embedded Modulated Scatterer Technique (MST) is one such method. This paper presents embedded MST, utilizing a dual-loaded scatterer, as applied to multilayer structure assessment. Simulation and measurement results are provided.
