In the course of the rapid advancement of diagnostic methods utilising elastic wave propagation, it has become clear that existing methods of elastic wave modeling and analysis are not always very useful; developing numerical methods aimed at modeling and analysing these phenomena has become a necessity. Furthermore, any methods developed need to be verified experimentally, which has become achievable with the advancement of measurement methods utilising laser vibrometry. \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eGuided Waves in Structures for SHM\u003c\/i\u003e reports on the simulation, analysis and experimental investigation related propagation of elastic waves in isotropic or laminated structures.
