Abstract The acoustic nonlinearity of surface waves is studied to evaluate plastic deformation in aluminum alloys. A narrow-band surface wave is successfully generated by a pulsed Nd-YAG laser system consisting of a beam expander and a slit mask. Various degrees of tensile deformation are induced by interrupting the tensile tests so as to obtain aluminum specimens with different degrees of plastic damage. The normalized acoustic nonlinearity increases as a function of tensile strain. The experimental results show that the acoustic nonlinearity of a laser-generated surface wave has a good correlation with the level of tensile deformation and has a potential to evaluate microdamage induced by dislocation microplasticity.
