This study investigates the Nonlinear Elastic Wave Spectroscopy (NEWS) via Local Damage Resonance (LDR) effects in the presence of kissing bonds in composite plates. The agreement between analytical/numerical/ results reveals that a monitoring approach combining NEWS and LDR is an extremely efficient and sensitive tool for ensuring integrity and safety of structural composite elements.
