Detection of multiple defects based on structural health monitoring of pipeline using guided waves technique

Monitoring and inspecting the health condition and state of the pipelines are significant processes for an early detection of any leaking or damages for avoiding disasters. Although most Non Destructive Test (NDT) techniques are able to detect and locate damage during the maintenance intervals, inte...
