Damage quantification based on Lamb waves is one of the research hotspots in the field of aerospace structural health monitoring (SHM). Deep learning (DL) is an efficient method to identify damage-related features from Lamb waves’ complex responses. In this article, a multitask convolutional neural networks and long-term and short-term memory networks (CNNs-LSTM) damage quantification method combining transfer learning is proposed, which directly uses the Lamb waves signal in the original discrete-time domain to predict the size and location of damage. The 1-D convolutional neural network (1D-CNN) is used to achieve damage size prediction, which can not only learn the corresponding features but also avoid wasting training resources. For damage location prediction, a multitask CNN-LSTM network architecture is established. Two parallel branches can output the coordinates of damage in ${x}$ - and ${y}$ -directions at the same time, to locate the damage at any location within the structure. To prove the reliability and generalization ability of the method, three datasets are collected through experiments. The three datasets are derived from two aluminum plates and one composite laminate. The model trained on the first aluminum plate is defined as the pre-training model, its structure and weight are extracted, and then the transfer learning method is used to realize the structural damage location identification of aluminum plate-aluminum plate and aluminum plate-composite laminate, which is of certain value for the research and application of transfer learning theory in damage quantification.
