Moreover，a new frequency-wavenumber (f-k) domain analysis-based baseline-freecrack diagnosis algorithm-minimizes false alarms caused by environmental variations by avoiding simple comparison with the baseline data accumulated from the pristine condition of a target structure is developed corresponding to the stripe-PZT sensor. The proposed technique is numerically as well as experimentally validated using a plate-like structure with a welded stiffener，reveling that it successfully identifies and localizes a crack in HAZ. 收起
