Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of ultrasonic nondestructive testing technology, and in particular to a nondestructive testing method and system based on dual-modal collaboration. Background Technology
[0002] With the continuous development of materials surface engineering technology, laser cladding technology has become one of the key means to improve the surface performance of metal parts. By melting and rapidly solidifying powder or wire under the action of a high-energy laser beam, laser cladding can form a high-hardness, wear-resistant, and corrosion-resistant coating on the substrate surface, achieving a significant enhancement of the surface performance of parts. In particular, the introduction of functionally graded materials (FGMs) allows the cladding layer to exhibit continuous changes in chemical composition and mechanical properties, not only meeting the dual requirements of surface protection and high-strength support in extreme environments, but also greatly extending the service life of critical components. However, the complexity of the multilayer heterogeneous structure and microcrystalline structure of functionally graded laser cladding layers also brings greater challenges to subsequent quality assessment and defect detection.
[0003] Currently, non-destructive testing of functionally graded laser cladding layers mainly relies on methods such as thermal imaging, X-ray imaging, defect imaging, and single-mode ultrasonic testing. While thermal and X-ray imaging can achieve rapid scanning of the overall structure, they struggle to provide high-resolution imaging of localized defects such as microcracks and pores. Traditional ultrasonic testing in multilayer metal structures is susceptible to interference from interface acoustic discontinuities and grain noise, resulting in weak response to deep defects and difficulty in distinguishing shallow microcracks. Especially when surface and deep defects coexist, a single testing mode often cannot simultaneously achieve both detection sensitivity and imaging accuracy, failing to meet the stringent reliability assessment requirements of high-end equipment and critical components.

[0022] Solve the characteristic equation of the global stiffness matrix to obtain the sound velocity dispersion curves and energy attenuation characteristics of the surface wave and the transverse wave in the multilayer structure.
[0023] The attenuation error caused by grain noise is compensated according to the characteristic equation;
[0024] Four mode conversion operators are constructed to describe the reflection, transmission, and energy conversion ratios of each mode at the interface.
[0025] In one embodiment of this application, the method further includes:

[0067] With the continuous development of materials surface engineering technology, laser cladding technology has become one of the key means to improve the surface performance of metal parts. By melting and rapidly solidifying powder or wire under the action of a high-energy laser beam, laser cladding can form a high-hardness, wear-resistant, and corrosion-resistant coating on the substrate surface, significantly enhancing the surface performance of parts. In particular, the introduction of functionally graded materials (FGMs) allows the cladding layer to exhibit continuous changes in chemical composition and mechanical properties, not only meeting the dual requirements of surface protection and high-strength support in extreme environments, but also greatly extending the service life of critical components. However, the complexity of the multilayer heterogeneous structure and microcrystalline structure of the laser cladding layer also brings greater challenges to subsequent quality assessment and defect detection.
[0068] Currently, non-destructive testing of functionally graded laser cladding layers mainly relies on methods such as thermal imaging, X-ray imaging, defect imaging, and single-mode ultrasonic testing. While thermal and X-ray imaging can achieve rapid scanning of the overall structure, they struggle to provide high-resolution imaging of localized defects such as microcracks and pores. Traditional ultrasonic testing in multilayer metal structures is susceptible to interference from interface acoustic discontinuities and grain noise, resulting in weak response to deep defects and difficulty in distinguishing shallow microcracks. Especially when surface and deep defects coexist, a single testing mode often cannot simultaneously achieve both detection sensitivity and imaging accuracy, failing to meet the stringent reliability assessment requirements of high-end equipment and critical components.
[0069] The dual-modal collaborative nondestructive testing method and system provided in this application can fully utilize the high sensitivity of surface waves to shallow microcracks and the strong penetrating power of transverse waves to deep structural defects. Through time-frequency domain fusion and deconvolution imaging, the blind zones of each mode are mutually compensated, achieving efficient detection of defects in functionally graded laser cladding layers from the surface to the depth.

[0070] Figure 1 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating a nondestructive testing method based on dual-modal collaboration provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 1 The method shown includes at least the following steps: S100: emitting a scanning signal using a scanning probe, causing the scanning signal to be incident obliquely onto the functionally graded laser cladding layer in pulse form; S200: receiving scattered signals from defects or interfaces; S300: performing continuous wavelet transform on the scattered signals to extract the time-domain envelope and dominant frequency components of the scattered signals; S400: aligning the arrival times of the defect main lobes of the surface wave mode and the transverse wave mode in the time domain; S500: weighting and superimposing the complementary frequency bands of the surface wave mode and the transverse wave mode in the frequency domain to obtain a complex-domain fused signal; S600: performing degradation correction on the complex-domain fused signal based on the point spread function analytically generated by the dual-mode scattering model and the Richardson-Lucy iterative deconvolution algorithm to output a three-dimensional image of the curve.
[0071] S100: The scanning probe emits a scanning signal, which is then incident on the functionally graded laser cladding layer in a pulsed manner.
[0072] Specifically, in the embodiments of this application, the scanning probe excites surface (Rayleigh) waves and SH transverse waves in the frequency band of 1MHz to 10MHz, respectively. The pulse width of each transmission is adjustable, and the transmission power and coupling angle can be pre-calibrated according to the characteristics of the cladding layer material.
[0073] Understandably, this step, by simultaneously exciting surface waves and transverse waves, ensures both a high-sensitivity response to shallow microcracks in the cladding layer and sufficient penetration capability for deep defects.
[0074] S200: Receives scattered signals from defects or interfaces.
[0075] In one embodiment of this application, the scattered signals include surface wave-surface wave, surface wave-transverse wave, transverse wave-transverse wave, and transverse wave-surface wave.
[0076] Specifically, in the embodiments of this application, after the probe switches to the receiving mode, it sequentially captures four types of scattered echoes—surface wave-surface wave, surface wave-transverse wave, transverse wave-transverse wave, and transverse wave-surface wave—using A-scan, and performs amplitude normalization and time delay correction on each echo signal.
[0077] Understandably, this step fully acquires the defect scattering characteristics of the four complementary modes, providing multi-angle and multi-depth defect information for subsequent fusion and deconvolution imaging.
[0078] S300: Performs continuous wavelet transform on the scattered signal to extract the time-domain envelope and dominant frequency component of the scattered signal.
[0079] Specifically, in the embodiments of this application, the normalized A-scan signal is input into the continuous wavelet transform (CWT), and the Morlet wavelet basis is selected to perform multi-scale decomposition on the signal, and the time-domain envelope curve of the echo signal and the corresponding main frequency component envelope are extracted respectively.
[0080] Understandably, wavelet transform can simultaneously provide local features of a signal in both the time and frequency domains, making it easier to accurately locate the arrival instant and spectral characteristics of defect echoes on the time axis.
[0081] S400: Arrival time of the defective main lobe of the surface wave mode and the transverse wave mode aligned in the time domain.
[0082] Specifically, in the embodiments of this application, the time delay difference between the echo envelope curves of each mode is calculated by cross-correlation algorithm, and the arrival time of the main lobe of the surface wave and the shear wave is interpolated and compensated to make the defective main lobes of different modes aligned at the same time reference point.
[0083] Understandably, this step eliminates the time difference between the two modes of wave propagation in terms of propagation speed and path, laying a strict time synchronization foundation for subsequent frequency domain fusion.
[0084] S500: In the frequency domain, the complementary frequency bands of surface wave modes and shear wave modes are weighted and superimposed to obtain a complex domain fused signal.
[0085] Specifically, in the embodiments of this application, the aligned time-domain signal is transformed to the frequency domain again by FFT, the weight coefficients are dynamically calculated according to the pre-constructed signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) evaluation function, and then the complex spectra of the two modes in the complementary frequency band are weighted and superimposed to obtain the fused complex domain signal.
[0086] Understandably, frequency domain weighted fusion utilizes the high SNR characteristics of surface waves in the low-frequency part and the penetration advantage of transverse waves in the high-frequency part to achieve optimal information integration of defect signals.
[0087] S600: Based on the point spread function generated analytically by the dual-mode scattering model and the Richardson-Lucy iterative deconvolution algorithm, the complex domain fused signal is degraded to output a three-dimensional image of the curve.
[0088] Specifically, in the embodiments of this application, the fused complex domain signal obtained in steps S200-S500 is used as the observed image. The pre-analyzed dual-modal point spread function (PSF) is substituted into the Richardson-Lucy algorithm to iteratively update the defect image estimation. After each iteration, dynamic adaptive filtering is applied to suppress background noise and speckle effect until the three-dimensional contour map of the defect is output.
[0089] Understandably, this step recovers the true spatial distribution of defects through complex domain deconvolution, which not only improves the imaging resolution (sub-millimeter level) but also directly obtains the depth and morphology information of the defects.
[0090] In this embodiment of the application, the method further includes: reconstructing the grain size, orientation, and reinforcing phase distribution of the functionally graded laser cladding layer along the thickness direction based on electron backscatter diffraction experimental data, X-ray diffraction experimental data, and phase field simulation results.
[0091] Specifically, using the grain orientation distribution map obtained by EBSD and the phase composition diffraction peak intensity measured by XRD, and combining the phase interface evolution information output by phase field simulation, the grain size and orientation at each location are extracted by image segmentation and statistical analysis algorithms, and a three-dimensional grain structure reconstruction model is generated in the thickness direction according to a predetermined step size.
[0092] Understandably, this step provides high-precision microstructure input for subsequent acoustic scattering modeling, ensuring that the physical basis of Green's function solution and noise compensation is consistent with the actual cladding layer structure.
[0093] In this embodiment, the functionally graded laser cladding layer is divided into multiple sub-layers based on the grain size change rate, texture intensity, and phase transition point. An adaptive grid discretization technique is applied to calibrate the microstructure model within each sub-layer, wherein the sub-layer boundary is determined by the phase transition point.
[0094] Specifically, the phase transition depth is first determined based on the gradient rate of grain size change with depth and the location of texture extrema, and the entire cladding layer is divided into several sub-layers with variable thickness. Then, a refined grid is automatically generated within each sub-layer, and the grid density is dynamically adjusted according to the grain size distribution and texture change rate to ensure that the statistical characteristics of the grains in each grid unit are uniform and describable.
[0095] Understandably, by using hierarchical calibration and adaptive discretization, the tissue differences within the heterogeneous layer are refined to each grid cell, laying a structurally uniform numerical foundation for the accurate calculation of spatial correlation functions and scattering characteristics.
[0096] In this embodiment, a spatial point-pair model is constructed using Monte Carlo random sampling. The multi-point spatial correlation function and the texture-corrected elastic modulus covariance matrix are derived using higher-order statistical tensors and non-stationary random field theory. Using the elastic modulus covariance matrix and the multi-point spatial correlation function as input, the tensor form of the Green's function for surface waves and transverse waves in multilayer heterogeneous media is analytically solved using the Dyson equation and the quasi-crystalline approximation method.
[0097] Specifically, tens of thousands of random point pairs are uniformly selected within each sublayer, and the second and third statistical moments of their elastic modulus perturbation are calculated to express the micro-inhomogeneity in the form of higher-order statistical tensors. Then, the obtained statistics are input into the Dyson equation, and combined with the quasicrystal approximation and displacement potential function, the Rayleigh and SH mode Green function tensor expressions containing interlayer interface effects are analytically solved.
[0098] Understandably, this step takes into account the non-stationary elastic disturbances caused by grains and texture, and obtains a mathematical kernel (Green function) that can accurately describe the propagation and scattering of dual-mode waves in multilayer structures, providing a core operator for subsequent calculation of scattering cross-sections.
[0099] In this embodiment, the differential scattering cross section is derived by combining the displacement potential function and multi-point correlation quantities, and the integral of the dual-mode wave scattering cross section is numerically solved by the Monte Carlo method to quantify the sound velocity dispersion and scattering attenuation characteristics caused by grain noise.
[0100] Specifically, based on the tensor forms of the aforementioned Green function and displacement potential function, the elastic modulus perturbation caused by the grains is mapped to scattering potential energy using a small perturbation approximation. Then, the differential scattering cross section formula for the two-mode wave is constructed, and the scattering contribution of all spatial point pairs is accumulated using Monte Carlo numerical integration. Finally, the sound velocity dispersion curve and the frequency-dependent attenuation coefficient are obtained.
[0101] Understandably, this numerical solution tightly couples the microscopic statistical model with the macroscopic acoustic response, accurately characterizing the influence of grain noise on the propagation attenuation and phase distortion of dual-mode ultrasound in functionally graded cladding layers.
[0102] In this embodiment, the method further includes: introducing a gradient factor for each sublayer, where the gradient factor is the continuous rate of change of the elastic modulus and density along the thickness direction in the functionally graded cladding layer; recursively correcting the local stiffness matrix of each sublayer using the gradient factor and assembling the corrected global stiffness matrix; solving the characteristic equation of the global stiffness matrix to obtain the sound velocity dispersion curves and energy attenuation characteristics of surface waves and transverse waves in the multilayer structure; compensating for attenuation errors caused by grain noise based on the characteristic equation; and constructing four mode conversion operators to describe the reflection, transmission, and energy conversion ratios of each mode at the interface.
[0103] Specifically, the elastic modulus gradient and density gradient of each sublayer are calculated using material composition and phase field simulation data, and these are assigned to the material properties of the finite element elements. Following a shallow-to-deep order, the stiffness matrices of each sublayer are multiplied by their corresponding gradient factors and weighted, and a global stiffness matrix for the overall structure is generated using stiffness matrix assembly rules. Then, eigenvalue decomposition is performed on this global matrix to obtain the intrinsic mode dispersion curves and corresponding energy attenuation coefficients of Rayleigh and SH waves at various frequencies, which are used to perform band-level correction on the attenuation curves based on grain statistics. Finally, for the intrinsic modes at each interface, a 4×4 mode transformation matrix is constructed according to four transformation relationships: Rayleigh→Rayleigh, Rayleigh→SH, SH→Rayleigh, and SH→SH, for use in subsequent signal model reflection and transmission coefficient multiplication calculations.
[0104] Understandably, this step directly integrates the continuous variation characteristics of the functionally graded layer into the wave equation and scattering model, and achieves synergistic compensation of interface effects and grain noise through feature analysis, thereby ensuring that the propagation and conversion laws of the dual-mode signal in the multilayer structure are highly consistent with the actual material.
[0105] In one embodiment of this application, the method further includes: constructing a grain noise database for each sublayer of the functionally graded cladding layer based on the sound velocity dispersion and scattering attenuation characteristics caused by grain noise; and suppressing noise in the received scattering signal using an adaptive filtering algorithm, wherein the weight coefficients of the adaptive filtering algorithm are updated in real time by the elastic modulus covariance matrix.
[0106] Specifically, according to different excitation frequencies and incident angles, the attenuation curves and phase distortion curves of each sublayer in the 1MHz–10MHz frequency band are pre-calculated and stored to form a multidimensional lookup table. During the detection process, the difference between the database curve and the current signal under the corresponding frequency bandwidth is read in real time, and the difference is used as the noise power estimation input in the adaptive filter (such as Wiener filter or Kalman filter). The filter gain is dynamically adjusted by the covariance matrix to remove random speckle noise caused by grain inhomogeneity.
[0107] Understandably, this step, through the combination of "prior database + real-time covariance update," allows the filter to be supported by a statistical model and adapt to batch differences in workpieces, effectively improving the clarity and reliability of the signal.
[0108] In this embodiment, the method further includes: transforming the scattering problem into a micro-perturbation problem, and iteratively solving the scattering field based on the defect location coordinates, size, orientation angle, and burial depth. The reflection coefficient, transmission coefficient, and mode conversion ratio at the multilayer interface are analyzed using a tensor form Green's function and a Sommerfeld integral.
[0109] Specifically, a perturbation potential model is first constructed using the initial parameters of the defect (x, y, z positions, length, width, thickness, and orientation angle). The wave equation is then linearized within the framework of the tensor Green's function, and the scattered field is expressed as a perturbation integral. Subsequently, the Sommerfeld integral path integration method is used to calculate the component coefficients from the incident mode to the scattered mode for each interface layer. The obtained reflection / transmission coefficients and mode conversion ratios are then substituted back into the perturbation integral expression to update the defect parameters. This iteration is repeated until the error between the scattered field and the experimentally acquired signal converges to a preset threshold.
[0110] Understandably, this step achieves an integrated solution of "model-driven + data correction" through perturbation iteration, so that the inversion of defect parameters is based on physical model derivation and closely matches actual wave field observations.
[0111] In this embodiment of the application, the defect echo prediction is generated using the following formula:
[0112]
[0113] Among them, A inc,i (ω) represents the incident spectrum, ω is the frequency, θ is the incident angle, and Sij (ω,θ) represents the scattering amplitude of the incident mode i transformed into mode j at frequency ω and incident angle θ, recorded by the two-dimensional mode transformation operator in the frequency domain. j Let d be the wavenumber of mode j, and d be the acoustic path distance from the defect to the center of the probe.
[0114] Specifically, by calling the previously solved mode conversion operator data and scattering path length, the contribution of each pair of (i→j) modes is calculated and accumulated, and then the phase delay term is superimposed to obtain the theoretically predicted echo.
[0115] Understandably, this prediction model concisely couples the incident spectrum, interface transformation, and propagation attenuation, making it suitable for both simulation comparison and real-time matching and parameter inversion in actual detection.
[0116] In this embodiment, the method further includes: performing amplitude normalization processing on each echo signal acquired by the scanning probe; extracting the instantaneous phase of the signal using Hilbert transform and eliminating wedge angle deviation through least-squares fitting; calculating the propagation time difference of each mode wave based on the sound velocity dispersion curve and calibrating the time delay of the surface wave and shear wave signals; and applying short-time Fourier transform combined with time-frequency masking in the frequency domain to separate interface clutter and improve signal contrast.
[0117] Specifically, firstly, each A-scan echo signal is normalized by dividing it by its maximum amplitude value. Then, the Hilbert transform is applied to the normalized signal to calculate the instantaneous phase curve, and the functional relationship between phase and incident angle is fitted using a wedge theory model. The actual incident angle deviation is then calculated using the least squares algorithm to correct subsequent data. Next, based on the pre-calculated Rayleigh and SH wave velocity dispersion curves, the time-frequency correspondence in each frequency band is derived, and the time delay of the surface and shear wave signals is aligned accordingly. Finally, a short-time Fourier transform is performed on the corrected signal to generate a time-frequency spectrum. The designed binary time-frequency mask is then applied to suppress multiple reflections and stray energy at the interface, retaining only the main lobe energy concentrated within the time-frequency window of the defect echo.
[0118] Understandably, this step, through precise phase correction and time delay matching, combined with time-frequency domain clutter suppression, not only eliminates system errors caused by hardware installation and material delamination, but also effectively isolates interface reflection interference, significantly improving the identifiability of defect signals.
[0119] In this embodiment of the application, the method further includes: constructing an adaptive signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) evaluation function based on the sound velocity dispersion and scattering attenuation characteristics caused by grain noise, and calculating the optimal weighting coefficients for weighted superposition of complementary frequency bands of surface wave mode and transverse wave mode in the frequency domain in real time based on the evaluation function, so as to maximize the overall SNR of the fused signal. The SNR evaluation function is constructed by a grain noise statistical model.
[0120] Specifically, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is defined based on the noise attenuation spectrum and dispersion data of each sublayer grain obtained from Monte Carlo simulation. A sliding window method is used to estimate the defect signal and noise power spectral density in real time within the selected frequency band. Normalized weighting coefficients w(ω) are generated according to the SNR value, and w(ω) is applied to the complex spectrum superposition of surface waves and transverse waves to obtain the optimal fusion result.
[0121] Understandably, this step minimizes the impact of low SNR segments of the chip noise through frequency band adaptive weighting, while retaining effective information in high-penetration regions, thus achieving dynamic optimal fusion of multi-mode signals.
[0122] In one embodiment of this application, the method further includes: in the Richardson-Lucy iterative deconvolution algorithm, using the complex domain fused signal as the initial estimate, and in each iteration, combining the observation data with the convolution residual to update the gray-scale distribution of the defect space.
[0123] Specifically, the complex domain fusion spectrum obtained in step S500 is restored to the spatial domain observation image by inverse FFT. The image and the pre-analyzed point spread function are input, and the image estimation is updated sequentially by iterative formula. During the iteration process, the local brightness is adaptively adjusted by combining the observation-estimation error spectrum until the overall residual converges to the preset threshold and the final three-dimensional distribution of defects is output.
[0124] Understandably, this iterative deconvolution not only restores the blur caused by scattering and system response, but also guides updates through convolution residuals in each iteration, enabling the defect morphology and location to be gradually and precisely restored, achieving sub-millimeter imaging accuracy.
[0125] Please refer to the following: Figure 2 and Figure 3 , Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of wedge detection provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of a nondestructive testing method based on dual-modal collaboration, provided as another embodiment of this application.
[0126] In the embodiments of this application, Figure 2 The process of dual-mode wave excitation-scattering-reception is illustrated. Figure 3 The dual-mode wave scattering of the scanned defect is shown.
[0127] Please refer to the following: Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of a wedge probe provided in one embodiment of this application.
[0128] In this embodiment of the application, the dual critical angle wedge probe is composed of two preset wedges, each wedge as follows: Figure 4As shown, these correspond to the critical coupling angles for surface waves (Rayleigh waves) and transverse waves (SH waves), respectively, enabling dual-mode excitation and reception at the same probe location. The probe body is made of highly damped material and equipped with an adjustable coupling device and a miniature transducer unit, achieving a broadband response of 1MHz–10MHz.
[0129] Specifically, the tilt angle θ_R of the upper wedge of the probe is set as the critical angle of Rayleigh wave incidence according to the acoustic impedance ratio of the cladding substrate and the coating, while the tilt angle θ_SH of the lower wedge is determined according to the shear velocity of the SH wave. The two are fixed on the same base by a precision mechanical structure. In actual testing, the upper wedge first excites and receives surface waves, and then switches to the lower wedge to excite transverse waves, or simultaneously acquires four modes of echo signals in dual-channel mode. High-viscosity coupling adhesive is used between the wedge and the workpiece surface to ensure stable signal transmission and high repeatability.
[0130] Understandably, this integrated dual-critical-angle design not only simplifies the probe replacement process, but also maximizes the coupling efficiency of the two ultrasonic modes through precise angle matching, thereby improving the signal-to-noise ratio and ensuring comprehensive coverage of both shallow and deep defects.
[0131] The following is an exemplary embodiment to describe a nondestructive testing method based on dual-modal collaboration provided in this application.
[0132] In this embodiment of the application, the object to be tested is the laser cladding layer on the surface of the outer ring (material: 42CrMo4 steel) of a certain type of wind turbine bearing. The cladding material is NiCrBSi-WC composite powder, and the thickness direction is gradient-distributed (80% WC content on the surface and 10% on the substrate side).
[0133] In this embodiment of the application, the experimental equipment is the integrated dual-critical-angle wedge probe provided by the present invention: operating frequency 1–10MHz, surface wave critical angle α1=62°, transverse wave critical angle α2=45°, adapted to the curved surface of wind turbine bearing (radius R=250mm).
[0134] In this embodiment, the ultrasonic testing system is equipped with a pulse transmitter and receiver (PRF 1kHz), a multi-channel digital signal acquisition module (sampling rate 100MS / s), and a dynamic adaptive filter bank. The simulation platform is finite element software with multi-level mesh generation (micro-grain scale: 0.5μm; macro-defect scale: 50μm).
[0135] In this embodiment, EBSD / XRD experimental data of the functionally graded cladding layer were collected, and combined with phase-field simulation results, the grain size (1–10 μm), orientation (texture intensity f(g) = 0.3–0.7), and WC reinforcement phase distribution (volume fraction φ = 10%–80%) in the thickness direction (0–2 mm) were reconstructed. This was based on the grain size variation rate (Δd / dz = 0.2–0.5 / μm). -1 The cladding layer is divided into 5 sub-layers (each 0.4 mm) based on the phase transition point (φ = 50%).
[0136] Each sub-layer is adaptively discretized using a grid, and Monte Carlo random sampling is used to generate 10... 6 For each pair of spatial points, the multi-point spatial correlation function C(r) = exp(-r / ξ)cos(2πr / λ0) is derived by combining the higher-order statistical tensor (fourth-order covariance matrix) and the theory of non-stationary random fields, where ξ is the correlation length (0.8–2.5μm) and λ0 is the characteristic wavelength (3–8μm).
[0137]
[0138] Calculate the sound velocity dispersion curves of Rayleigh waves (c_R = 2980 m / s) and SH waves (c_SH = 3230 m / s) in each sublayer, and solve for the scattering cross-section integral using Monte Carlo integration:
[0139]
[0140] The energy attenuation coefficient α(ω) caused by grain noise is obtained as 0.2–1.5 dB / mm (frequency 2–10 MHz).
[0141] A gradient factor γ = ΔE / Δρ (where E is the elastic modulus and ρ is the density) is introduced for each interface layer, and the local stiffness matrix [K] is recursively corrected. n Assemble the corrected global stiffness matrix [K]:
[0142]
[0143] Solve the characteristic equation |det([K]-ω 2 [M])|=0, and the sound velocity dispersion curves of Rayleigh wave and SH wave are obtained, which compensates for the error caused by the acoustic discontinuity of the interface (the error after correction is <2%).
[0144] For typical defects in wind turbine bearings (microcracks L=50μm, pores D=100μm, inclusions φ=50μm), a small perturbation method is used to develop the scattering differential section:
[0145]
[0146] Where a is the defect size, Δμ is the modulus perturbation, and f(θ) is the angle-dependent function.
[0147] By combining the Green's function and the Sommerfeld integral, the defect echo signal is solved iteratively:
[0148]
[0149] For the curved surface of wind turbine bearings, a curvature compensation algorithm is used to correct the probe contact surface (curvature radius R = 250mm ± 1%), reducing the acoustic field distortion rate to below 3%. The probe center frequency is set to 5MHz, the pulse width to 500ns, and the excitation voltage to 200Vpp.
[0150] Four modal scattering signals were acquired using pulse reflection scanning: surface wave-surface wave (RR): defect main lobe arrival time t1 = 1.2 μs, dominant frequency f1 = 6.8 MHz; surface wave-transverse wave (R-SH): t2 = 1.5 μs, f2 = 4.2 MHz; transverse wave-transverse wave (SH-SH): t3 = 1.8 μs, f3 = 5.5 MHz; transverse wave-surface wave (SH-R): t4 = 2.1 μs, f4 = 3.8 MHz. The acquired A-scan signals were normalized (amplitude error <5%), time delay calibrated (time difference <0.1 μs), and phase compensated (Hilbert transform correction).
[0151] Continuous wavelet transform (CWT) was performed on the four modal signals to extract the time-domain envelope (main lobe width Δt = 0.3 μs) and the dominant frequency component (RR: 6.8 MHz ± 0.5 MHz, SH-SH: 5.5 MHz ± 0.3 MHz). The signal-to-noise ratio of each modality was calculated (RR: 12 dB, SH-SH: 9 dB, R-SH: 7 dB).
[0152] At the arrival time of the main lobe of the time-domain alignment defect, the frequency domain selects the RR high-frequency band (5–10MHz) and the SH-SH low-frequency band (1–5MHz) for weighted superposition, and the overall SNR is improved to 15dB after fusion.
[0153] The point spread function (PSF) was analytically generated based on the two-mode scattering theory, with a main lobe width of 0.3 mm (λ / 2at5MHz) and side lobe suppression >20 dB. The Richardson-Lucy algorithm was applied iteratively 50 times, with the initial estimated image being a zero matrix, and the defect image was updated in each iteration.
[0154] During the iteration process, Wiener filtering (time domain) and matched pursuit (frequency domain) were used to jointly suppress low-frequency background noise (<1MHz) and high-frequency speckle noise (>8MHz). The output is a 3D image of the defect with a resolution of 0.2mm (λ / 10at5MHz). Defect types identified include: transverse microcracks (length L = 80μm, depth d = 300μm); internal pores (diameter D = 150μm, depth d = 1.2mm); and inclusions (size 100×80μm, distribution density ρ = 5 inclusions / mm). 2 .
[0155] A cladding layer model of the wind turbine bearing, incorporating grain noise (based on EBSD data), was established in finite element software. Surface waves and SH waves were excited, and the aforementioned three types of defects were introduced. Micro-CT inspection results showed that the defect size error was <8% and the burial depth error was <50μm, meeting the requirements for wind turbine bearing service life assessment.
[0156] The method provided in this application improves the signal-to-noise ratio of microcracks (50μm) to 15dB by suppressing grain noise through dual-modal collaborative methods. It achieves clear defect contours at the sub-millimeter (0.2mm) level with a burial depth positioning error of <50μm. It simultaneously covers surface (RR) and deep (SH-SH) defects, improving detection efficiency by 40%. It is adaptable to the irregular curved surfaces of wind turbine bearings, with probe coupling stability >95%. The defect classification report supports lifetime prediction (crack propagation rate da / dN calculation error <10%).
