This Special Issue of Applied Sciences covers all aspects of ultrasonic guided waves (e.g., phased array transducers, meta-materials to control wave propagation characteristics, scattering, attenuation, and signal processing techniques) from the perspective of modeling, simulation, laboratory experiments, or field testing. In order to fully utilize ultrasonic guided waves for these applications, it is necessary to have a firm grasp of their requisite characteristics, which include that they are multimodal, dispersive, and are comprised of unique displacement profiles through the thickness of the waveguide. 606 $aCivil engineering 606 $aUltrasonic equipment 615 0$aCivil engineering. 615 0$aUltrasonic equipment. 676 $a624 700 $aLissenden$b Clifford J.$01348564 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910688307503321 996 $aUltrasonic Guided Waves$93086097 997 $aUNINA
