An adaptive frequency domain finite element model for surface wave testing of pavements

Rydén, Nils LU and Castaings, M. (2009) 35th Annual Review of Progress in Quantitative Nondestructive Evaluation 1096. p.1481-1488
Abstract
The proposed adaptive frequency domain finite element (FE) model makes it possible to simulate wave propagation in a pavement structure over a wide frequency range using a normal size computer. The geometry and mesh size are optimized and regenerated for each frequency using a simple script in a commercial FE software package. Results from the FE model agree well with normal mode dispersion curves for a 3-layer reference pavement model. The proposed approach is fast and computationally efficient and intended to be used as a forward model for iterative surface wave inversion.
