基于超声红外热成像的缺陷检测与定位研究

超声红外热成像以超声作为激励源,能够用于检测多种工件,但是由于热传导效应及空气的散射,检测结果中缺陷边缘较为模糊,成像对比度不高,并且会有温度分布不均引起的"散斑噪声"。为解决以上问题,提出了一种对超声红外热成像结果进行缺陷检测和定位的方法,使用限制对比度自适应直方图均衡(contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization,简称CLAHE)方法对图像进行对比度增强,用巴特沃斯滤波器进行降噪,根据图像的局部方差特征判断是否有缺陷,并通过形态学处理对缺陷中心进行定位。实验表明,根据局部方差可以对图像进行有效判断,经过形态学处理之后能够准确定位。该研究为通过超声红外热成像实现缺陷检测及定位提供了一种便捷有效的方法。

Comparative Data Processing Approaches for Thermal Wave Imaging Techniques for Non-Destructive Testing

Thermal non destructive testing is a whole-field, non-contact and non-destructive inspection method used to reveal the surface or subsurface anomalies in a test sample. This paper describes a novel modelling and simulation technique of a three dimensional pulse compression method for non-stationary thermal imaging. This method requires much lower peak power heat sources than the widely used conventional pulsed thermographic methods (PT and PPT) and requires less time than sinusoidal modulated Lock-in Thermography (LT). In addition, simulation results obtained with the proposed techniques are compared with the conventional phase-based thermal imaging techniques (PPT and LT).

Fast Defect Detection in Textured Surfaces Using 1D Gabor Filters

In this paper, we present a fast machine vision method for the automatic inspection of defects in textured surfaces. Traditional 2D Gabor filtering schemes have been shown to be very effective for detecting local anomalies in textured surfaces of industrial materials. However, they are computationally expensive and sensitive to image rotation. In order to alleviate the limitations of 2D Gabor filtering, we first use a 1D ring-projection transformation to compress a 2D grey-level image into a 1D pattern, and then employ a 1D Gabor filter to detect defects embedded in a homogeneous texture. Given a problem with image size N × N and filter window W × W, the computational complexity can be reduced significantly from O(W ² N ² ) in the 2D Gabor space to O(WN ² ) in the 1D Gabor space, and the detection results are invariant to rotation changes of a texture. The experiments on structural textures such as a wooden surface, an LCD display, and a machined surface, and statistical textures such as granite, leather, and sandpaper have shown the efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed method.

基于压电晶片阵列的管中导波时反检测方法研究

为提高超声导波技术对管中小缺陷的检测能力,提出一种采用窄带高压脉冲激发安装在管道外表面的压电晶片阵列实现管中导波时间反转检测的新方法。该方法采用窄带脉冲同时激励沿管道表面轴对称安装的压电晶片阵列,从各压电晶片接收到的反射回波中提取含L(n, 2)模态的缺陷信息进行时间反转,并用获得的时反波再次激励阵列中对应压电晶片,整个阵列将同时接收到较单一L(n, 2)模态信号。试验结果表明,该方法能较好地抑制导波的频散、多模态特性,提高缺陷回波信噪比,增加对小缺陷的检测能力。同时,时反前、后所检测到的管道端面和缺陷反射回波的导波模态几乎相同,可采用特定频率的L(0, 2)模态群速度作为时反后缺陷波包的传播速度;且时反后的幅值最大的缺陷波包能重构窄带初始激励信号幅值最大的波包,可有效增加缺陷波包的辨识能力。     

基于群速度校准的超声导波技术及在复合材料缺陷检测中的应用

由于在复合材料板中传播的超声导波具有偏斜效应,使得理论群速度与试验测得的群速度不一致,因此需要对群速度幅值和传播方向进行校准。数值计算复合材料板中超声导波频散方程得到S0模态各个方向的理论相速度频散曲线。运用群速度校准法则对S0模态群速度幅度和传播方向进行修正。校准后的理论群速度与试验测得的群速度较为吻合。试验中采用频率200 kHz的S0模态对碳纤维复合材料板中的模拟缺陷进行检测。结果显示采用校准后群速度和试验测得的群速度可准确定位缺陷,且具有很好的一致性。因此,采用群速度校准法则可有效提高各向异性复合材料结构中超声导波的缺陷定位和识别能力。
