This paper introduces a Meta-lens designed for the detection of minute damage in Structural Health Monitoring
(SHM) by amplifying backscattered waves originating from anomalous areas. Our approach starts with the
development of an easily installed Meta-lens, optimizing wave focusing on an aluminium plate through strategic
planning of the A0 wave trajectory, resembling a hyperbolic secant. Subsequently, we detail the configuration of
the actuator, lens, and sensor in both healthy and damaged scenarios, the latter involving a through-hole defect in
the plate. A comparative analysis of signals, accounting for damage size and location variations, is conducted
against a baseline. The results demonstrate that the Meta-lens induces a unique wave behaviour, resulting in double
intensification of backscattered signals, significantly increasing sensitivity to damage features compared to
systems without the lens. The focusing effect of the Meta-lens is further validated experimentally, which shows
good agreement with the simulation results. The findings underscore the significant potential of employing the
Meta-lens for damage detection, thereby eliminating the reliance on intricate sensor networks and complex signal
post-processing.
