Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers (CFRP) are extensively utilized in high-performance engineering, yet localized structural discontinuities can severely compromise their integrity. This paper aims to achieve high-sensitivity characterization of such anomalies using a proposed acoustic shearography technique based on continuous acoustic excitation. A comprehensive finite element model (FEM) was developed to clarify the mechanical-energy coupling between the acoustic fields and localized surface strain field modulations. By exploiting ultrasonic energy coupling, the localized features of discontinuities were identified through full-field, non-contact optical measurement of localized phase distortions. Key parameters, including shearing amount, excitation frequency, driving voltage, and geometric characteristics of blind flat-bottom holes (BFBH), were systematically investigated. The results demonstrate a high correlation between FEM simulations and experimental observations quantitatively elucidating how defect diameter and hole depth modulate surface strain distributions. The proposed hybrid acoustic optical approach achieves near-instantaneous full field imaging within a millisecond timeframe typically under 200 ms. Additionally, the methodology leverages localized acoustic resonance to significantly boost the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) resulting in highly quantified phase map contrast.
