- This paper presents a novel and robust semi-analytical benchmark solution for the study of wave propagation in laminated composite beams. The layer-wise modelling theory that was applied through the thickness of the beam lead to a time-efficient solution that has been used by many researchers to validate their numerical studies. Active SHM is still in a preliminary stage, so it would take some time for industrial applications, however, it is a significant step towards this goal. Various studies after this publication have based their validations using other numerical methods on this fundamental solution (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.wavemoti.2014.11.001; https://doi.org/10.1016/j.wavemoti.2020.102543)
