Lamb Wave Based Ultrasonic Technique for AA2024 Fatigue Evaluation

Article Preview

Abstract:

Experimental results of Lamb wave technique investigation for evaluation of fatigue state of AA2024T3 specimens under cyclic loading conditions are presented. Analysis of acoustic signal data obtained by the piezoelectric transducers network was done through the calculation of two parameters: maximum envelope and 2nd central moment. Understanding of relations between acoustic signals features and emergent damages will provide the ability to determine the state of the structure and evaluate the defects, therefore assume the preventative measures and avoid accidents.
