description | Ultrasonic guided waves are already used for material characterization. The advantage of these waves is that they propagate in the plane of a plate and their propagation characteristics are sensitive to properties of the material. The objective of this research was to develop an ultrasonic method that could be used to measure the properties of thin plastic polyvinylchloride films (PVC). The proposed method exploits two fundamental Lamb wave modes, A(0) and S(0), for measurement of a thin film thickness and Young’s modulus. The Young’s modulus is found from the measured phased velocity of the S(0) mode and the film thickness from the velocities of both A(0) and S(0) modes. By using the proposed semi-contactless measurement algorithm, the Young’s modulus and thickness of different thickness (150 µm and 200 µm) PVC films were measured. The uncertainty of thickness measurements of the thinner 150 µm PVC film is 2% and the thicker 200 µm PVC film is 3.9%. |
