A temperature-insensitive damage evaluation parameter for composite laminates is proposed. Ultrasonic wave velocity is directly related to material stiffness, so that it is a quantitative parameter that gives information about the mechanical state of the material. However, ultrasonic velocities vary with temperature therefore environmental factors might cause non-negligible error in inspected results. In this work, the angular dependence of Lamb wave propagation, i.e., the acoustic anisotropy, is exclusively focused on and the change in the acoustic anisotropy is used as a damage evaluation parameter. It is experimentally confirmed that the acoustic anisotropy is significantly altered by matrix cracks formation although it is insensitive to temperature variation. It is also shown that the combination of different Lamb modes is a more promising method for predicting the effective stiffness of damaged laminates.
