An innovative approach to nondestructive evaluation (NDE) using noncontacting optical sensors has demonstrated. In this effort a single mode optical fiber interferometer (OFI) was used to sense the presence and form of Rayleigh waves traveling along the surface of a steel test bar at a velocity of nearly 3mm/µs. Acousto-optic time-domain data was successfully used to detect the presence and locate the position of a test flaw (a machined slot) in the bar, and spectrum analysis was used to estimate its geometry and size. This approach has many potential applications in the ultrasonic evaluation of real flaws in structures with complex geometries. Coupled with the authors' earlier work demonstrating the feasibility of generating acoustic waves in metals using laser light pulses transmitted through the fiber optic probes, this latest achievement points to the development of a fully noncontacting, fiber optic based thermal-acousto-photonic (TAP) NDE system, with potential applications to the reliability testing of many important structures where composition, scale, geometry, or restricted access preclude the use of conventional NDE techniques. 相似文献

ondestructive evaluation is described as nondestructive testing (NDT), nondestructive inspection (NDI), and nondestructive
examination (NDE). The activities associated with the evaluation include testing, inspection, and examination and primarily
involve looking at (or through) and/or measuring some characteristic of an object. Frequently there is a desire to determine
some characteristic of the object or to determine whether the object contains irregularities, discontinuities, or flaws. These
examinations, inspections, or tests are used to determine the physical soundness of a material without impairing its usefulness.
Nondestructive evaluation is a powerful tool that can help assure safety, quality, and reliability; increase productivity;
decrease liability; protect the environment; and save money. In this article, nondestructive evaluation is represented by
the acronym NDE. 相似文献

Long‐standing infrastructure is subject to structural deterioration. In this respect, steel bridges suffer fatigue cracks, which necessitate immediate inspection, structural integrity evaluation or repair. However, the inaccessibility of such structures makes inspection time consuming and labour intensive. Therefore, there is an urgent need for developing high‐performance nondestructive evaluation (NDE) methods to assist in effective maintenance of such structures. Recently, use of infrared cameras in nondestructive testing has been attracting increasing interest, as they provide highly efficient remote and wide area measurements. This paper first reviews the current situation of nondestructive inspection techniques used for fatigue crack detection in steel bridges, and then presents remote NDE techniques using infrared thermography developed by the author for fatigue crack detection and structural integrity assessments. Furthermore, results of applying fatigue crack evaluation to a steel bridge using the newly developed NDE techniques are presented. 相似文献

A numerical stress analysis technique using the displacement discontinuity method (DDM) is used to evaluate surface breaking and near surface flaws. DDM is described briefly, with the main body of the work devoted to exploring the use of DDM in a nondestructive evaluation (NDE) program. DDM is a subset of boundary element method technique, and it requires that only the boundaries of the problem be described. Two smooth subsurface voids are investigated. Results for two-dimensional circular and elliptical holes are presented. Comparisons with experimental and theoretical work are shown. The method of uneven element spacing is explored. The results are examined in the context of providing information for NDE inspection requirements and the definition of acceptable flaws. DDM is very well suited for examining the stress field around a surface crack. Surface cracks can be very dangerous and good NDE inspection techniques are required. A method of obtaining the stress intensity factors is developed and illustrated on angular surface breaking cracks. The results are compared with limited experimental and numerical results and interpreted in terms of NDE inspection requirements. 相似文献

斜拉索作为斜拉桥的重要受力构件,其风荷载设计在桥梁抗风设计中具有重要意义。斜拉索在生产、运输和安装过程中有可能受到损伤,针对不同程度表面损伤的斜拉索,利用风洞测力试验,研究了亚临界、临界和超临界雷诺数区域损伤程度对斜拉索气动阻力的影响,并得到了表面损伤斜拉索气动阻力的计算方法。结果表明:在一定的风向范围内,斜拉索表面损伤对其气动阻力影响显著,在亚临界区,表面损伤模型阻力系数大于光滑模型;进入临界区后,表面损伤模型的阻力系数则小于光滑模型;在超临界区,二者又比较接近。随着划痕的加深,临界区起始雷诺数提前,且在临界雷诺数区,随着雷诺数的增大,阻力系数减小。对不同损伤程度斜拉索的阻力系数进行拟合,得出相应的计算公式,以方便斜拉索气动阻力的估算。 相似文献

Abstract Gas transmission pipelines in the United States are primarily inspected using the magnetic flux leakage (MFL) nondestructive evaluation (NDE) technique. However, accurate analysis of the NDE signals in terms of the underlying defects requires a thorough knowledge of various operational parameters such as B-H characteristics of the pipe wall, the velocity of the scanning tool, etc. In certain situations, information about such operational parameters is either absent or hard to obtain. Appropriate signal processing techniques can be applied to the raw MFL signals to ensure that defect characterization is possible in spite of local variations in the test situation. This paper presents two such signal processing methods–one, to compensate the MFL signal for variations in pipe-material grade, and the other to remove the effects of signal distortion that occur due to the velocity of the scanning device. 相似文献

To overcome the limitations of conventional steel stay cables in a thousand-meter scale cable-stayed bridge, hybrid basalt and carbon (B/C) FRP cables were investigated to achieve integrated high performances in the bridge of this scale as a replacement for steel cables. First, the material properties of different cables were discussed, and static and dynamic analyses on the entire bridges with different cables were conducted by means of finite element method. Moreover, the aerodynamic stability of different cables was studied in terms of the Scruton number. Results show that (1) hybrid B/CFRP with a 28% volume proportion of carbon fibres exhibits relatively high stiffness, economical cost, a small sag effect and sufficient fatigue resistance, which was proven suitable for stay cables; (2) based on the stiffness principle, the cable-stayed bridge with hybrid B/CFRP cables exhibits linear L–D behaviour and higher stiffness compared to the bridge with steel cables under the static load, and this advantage would become more apparent with the elongation of span; (3) the hybrid B/CFRP cable processes much higher natural frequencies than steel cables, which could lower the possibility of resonance between stay cables and the bridge deck. Furthermore, the aerodynamic stability of hybrid B/CFRP cables is superior to other cables due to its designable inherent damping. 相似文献

Nondestructive evaluation (NDE) system with high spatial resolution power based on high-T
c
superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) has been developed. The SQUID is fabricated by YBCO thin film and mounted
in vacuum at the end of a cold finger fixed at the inner wall bottom of the dewar, which is filled with liquid nitrogen (77 K)
to cool the SQUID sensor. The sensor faces a thin flat sapphire window on the outer wall of the dewar and is thermally isolated
from it by a vacuum space at a distance of less than 1 mm. The magnetic field sensitivity of SQUID is about 40 pT/
Hz in magnetically unshielded environment. This NDE system was used to detect the flaws buried into materials. The remnant
magnetic field inducted by the local damages in a stainless steel sample was measured. Incorporated a gradiometric double-D
excitation coil, the eddy current NDE was carried out. Small cracks in the aluminum below the surface can be detected effectively
in unshielded environment.

为了装点城市夜景,对既有大跨度斜拉桥进行光彩亮化改造已成为一种趋势,但是安装照明灯具将显著改变斜拉索的气动形状,影响结构气动稳定性。为保证结构的安全及耐久性,通过风洞试验研究了安装灯具后斜拉索的抗风性能,评价亮化灯具对既有斜拉索产生的影响。以三种不同管径斜拉索为研究对象,制作了几何缩尺比为1∶1的节段模型,开展了测力和测振的风洞试验。研究结果表明:灯具的存在将显著改变斜拉索的气动外形,提高其背风侧漩涡脱落的频率,使斜拉索在更低的来流风速下就具备发生涡激共振的可能性。此外,灯具对斜拉索风雨激振的影响较为有限,对斜拉索干索驰振有一定的抑制作用。 相似文献

We built a portable low-cost superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometer to be used as the sensing element
of an electric current injection NDE system. Using this system, we measured the magnetic fields associated with aluminum plate
with single flaws in the millimeter range (2 to 8 mm), at lift-off distances up to ten times the size of the flaw, with injection
currents in the order of a few amps. Because the system is at a relatively large distance from the test plate, the signal
generated by the flaw is masked by the sinal generated by the edges of the plate. This is independent of the amount of current
injected. Due to this, visual inspection is difficult when the distance from the sensor to the flaw exceeds five times its
size. To intensify the magnetic field disturbance due to the flaws, we used digital image-enhancement techniques. Applying
the enhancement algorithm, magnetic field disturbances were visualized at distances up to ten times the size of the flaw. 相似文献

ABSTRACTFor enhanced detection of flaws in engineering components using magnetic flux leakage (MFL) technique, measurement of the leakage magnetic field components along the three perpendicular directions is beneficial. This article presents the three dimensional-magnetic flux leakage (3D-MFL) modeling and experimental studies carried out on carbon steel plates. Magnetic dipole model has been used for the prediction of MFL signals and images. Sensitivity of the MFL signals peak amplitudes of tangential (HX), circumferential (HY), and normal (HZ) components with respect to flaw length, width, depth and lift-off have been studied. A 3D-GMR sensor has been used for simultaneous measurement of all the three components of leakage magnetic fields from surface flaws in 12 mm thick carbon steel plates. The experimental MFL images have been compared with the model predicted MFL images. The sensor has shown the capability to detect and image 0.9 mm deep surface flaws with a signal to noise ratio of 8 dB. Principal component analysis (PCA)-based image fusion has been performed for fusion of the 3D-MFL images to obtain a geometrical profile of the flaws. Study reveals that 3D-GMR enhances the capability for detection of flaws having irregular geometries. 相似文献
