激光导波阵列波束成形损伤成像方法

激光超声检测方法在结构损伤检测领域有着广泛应 用。增加激光信号用于损伤成像的技术难点。针对此挑战,采用提出的Morlet小波分析法提 取激光宽频信号中对应中心频率下的窄带信息。为实现损伤 的可视化,分析比较了导波阵列波束成形损伤成像算法中时间延迟叠加算法和相位延迟叠加 算法,其中相位延迟叠加成像法对频域内所有频率成分实施延迟叠加能克服导波的频散效应 得影响,能实现对损伤更精确的定位。为验证该方法的实用性,构建了激光激励/接收完全 非接触式的实验系统,通过对Morlet小波分析后的信号采用延迟叠加算法对损伤进行成像, 实验结果表明了:相位延迟叠加成像法成像效果比时间延迟成像法成像效果更佳,定位更精 确。

Array beamforming and damage imaging based on laser guided wave

The detection method based on laser ultrasonic wave has a broad application in the field of structural damage detection.but the laser signal has the charact eristics of a wide-frequency band,which makes the incident signals and the dama ge sacttered signals severely difficult to be effectively separated in the time domain,resulting in the failure to extract the damage scattered signal informati on.For this challenge,the Morlet wavelet analysis was proposed to extract the na nowband information at the corresponding center frequency in the laser broadband signal.To visualize damage and to locate damage more accurately,time delay-and -sum algorithm and phase delay-and-sum algorithm in the guided wave array bea mforming and damage imaging were analyzed and compared,the time delay imaging te chnology only implements delay-and-sum in the time domain,which cannot avoid t he dispersion effect of guided wave.However,phase delay imaging technology think ds of all the frequency components which overcomes the dispersion effect,and ena ble more accurate damage location.In order to verify the practicability of this method,a completely non-contact experimental system for laser excitation/recept ion was constructed.The signal after Morlet wavelet analysis was used ot image t he damage by using delay-and-sum algorithm better imaging and more accurate po sition by phase delay-and-sum.
