Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of engineering structure health monitoring, and in particular relates to an anisotropic compensation MUSIC damage imaging method based on excitation focus scanning. Background Art
[0002] Advanced composite materials technology, especially high-strength carbon fiber composite materials technology, is a typical dual-use and military-civilian integration technology. In recent years, the trend of diversification and multi-application is very obvious. The application fields include aerospace, wind power generation, shipbuilding, automotive industry and other fields. Composite materials structures are easily damaged by low-speed impact during manufacturing and service. These internal damages not only greatly reduce the strength of the structure but also cannot be detected by conventional detection methods, which makes the structure have serious safety hazards. Therefore, structural health monitoring technology has important application value and broad application prospects for ensuring the safety of composite materials structures and reducing maintenance costs.
[0003] The array guided wave damage imaging method based on multiple signal classification (MUSIC) is a potential technology in the field of structural health monitoring. It has the advantages of directional scanning, high resolution, and relatively better program accuracy under low signal-to-noise ratio. The MUSIC algorithm models the guided wave propagation of the sensor array, performs eigenvalue decomposition on the covariance matrix of the array signal, and obtains the noise subspace spanned by the eigenvectors corresponding to the small eigenvalues. Then the MUSIC spatial spectrum is defined to represent the orthogonality between the noise subspace and the array flow pattern vector. By scanning the entire monitoring area, the image is drawn with the spatial spectrum as the pixel value, and the peak of the search image is the damage location. However, in practical applications, the amplitude of the guided wave will decay rapidly when propagating on some composite materials, such as large carbon fiber composite panels, resulting in a significant reduction in the signal-to-noise ratio of the damage scattering signal. In addition, composite materials have strong anisotropy, and the propagation speed of the guided wave in different directions varies greatly, while the accuracy of the MUSIC algorithm depends on the accuracy of the array flow pattern vector related to the wave velocity. If a fixed speed is used during the scanning process, the imaging accuracy will decrease.
[0004] Therefore, for damage monitoring of strongly attenuated anisotropic structures, it is necessary to introduce an excitation focusing scanning mechanism in damage imaging based on the MUSIC algorithm to enhance the excitation signal to improve the signal-to-noise ratio and compensate for the array flow pattern vector error caused by structural anisotropy.

[0006] In order to achieve the above technical objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions.
[0007] A method for anisotropy compensation MUSIC damage imaging based on excitation focus scanning comprises the following steps:
[0008] Step 1: Drive the piezoelectric transducer (PZT) array elements of the linear array in sequence to generate guided waves, collect the guided wave signals received by all other PZT array elements at the same time, and extract the array difference signal between the damaged state and the healthy state, which is the damaged scattering array signal. Specifically: each PZT array element in the array is used as an excitation array element to generate guided waves, and a total of 2M+1 excitations are performed, where 2M+1 is the number of array elements; during each excitation process, the remaining 2M array elements are collected as the guided wave signals received by the sensing array elements; the final array signal dimension is (2M+1)×2M×N, where N is the sampling length; the corresponding signal record under the excitation array element q and the sensing array element p is x p,q (t), the subscript q represents the number of the excitation array element, and the subscript p represents the number of the sensing array element.

[0025] Furthermore, the step 4 specifically includes:
[0026] Step 4.1. Calculate the covariance matrix of the enhanced damaged scattering array signal:

[0037]
[0038] Furthermore, in step 6, the inverse of the modulus value of the multiplication of the noise subspace and the flow pattern vector of the scanning position array is calculated and recorded as the spatial spectrum P(r,θ) of the scanning position.
[0039]
[0040] Where A(r,θ) is the matrix form of the array flow vector,
[0041] Furthermore, in step 7, an image is drawn using the spatial spectrum as the pixel value, and the peak of the image is searched to be the damage location:

[0086] Embodiment 2 of the present invention: A damage localization experiment is conducted using a carbon fiber composite material plate as a strong attenuation anisotropic structure to illustrate its specific implementation process.
[0087] like Figure 2 As shown, the size of the carbon fiber composite material plate is 600mm×500mm×4mm, with a total of 24 layers. The thickness of each layer is 0.125mm, and the ply sequence is [45 / 0 / -45 / 90 / 0 / -45 / 0 / -45 / 0]s. A one-dimensional uniform linear array is arranged on the structure, which contains 9 array elements with an array element spacing of 13mm. The name of each array element is PZT-4 to PZT 4. A polar coordinate system is established with the center of the array, that is, PZT0 as the origin. At the same time, three damages were artificially simulated on the composite material plate by pasting absorbing glue, namely damage 1, damage 2 and damage 3. The positions of the three damages are (180mm, 90°), (130mm, 113°) and (173mm, 57°).

[0090] When the structure is healthy, each PZT array element in the sensor array is driven in turn to generate guided waves, and the guided wave signals received by all other PZT array elements are collected as reference signals. In the damage monitoring process, the same driving method is used to collect the response signal of the sensor array, which is recorded as the monitoring signal; the reference signal is subtracted from the monitoring signal to obtain the damaged scattering array signal. Among them, the three damage scattering signals with PZT0 as the excitation array element and PZT-4 as the sensing array element are as follows: Figure 4a , 4b , as shown in 4c.
[0091] S2. Excitation Focusing Scanning of Array Waveguide

According to the above formula (1), the relative delay τ between PZT q and the reference array element is calculated: q The delay of the waveguide signal received by PZT p under each excitation array element is accumulated and expressed as x p (t, r, θ). Calculate the sum of the squares of the maximum values of the signals of each element in the array S(r, θ) according to formula (3). If S(r, θ) is greater than S 0 , then the delayed accumulation result x′ of the signal collected by the recording element under different excitation elements p (t) = x p (t,r,θ), and let S 0 =S(r,θ).
[0093] S3. Obtaining enhanced damage scattering signal
[0094] Repeat step 2 to perform a two-dimensional scan of the direction and distance of the monitoring area, with the scanning steps of angle and distance being 1° and 1mm respectively, until the scanning of the entire monitoring area is completed, and the enhanced scattering array signal with the corresponding excitation signal focused on the damage position can be obtained. Take damage 1 as an example. Through excitation focusing scanning, the 8 scattering signals received by each PZT array element are delayed and accumulated, as shown in Figure 5. After excitation focusing scanning, the amplitude of the damage scattering signal increases from 0.15V to 0.7V, and the signal-to-noise ratio increases from 5.5dB to 18.8dB, which is about 3.4 times higher than the signal-to-noise ratio.
[0095] S4.MUSIC algorithm preprocessing
[0096] The covariance matrix of the enhanced damaged scattering array signal is calculated according to formula (4), and the covariance matrix R is decomposed by eigenvalue according to formula (5) to obtain the noise subspace U spanned by the eigenvectors corresponding to the small eigenvalues: N .
[0097] S5. Anisotropy compensation of array flow pattern vectors
[0098] Set a scanning position (r, θ) in the monitoring area again, as shown in Figure 6, and calculate the direction from the scanning position (r, θ) to the PZT p element according to formula (7). Adopt the dual anisotropy compensation mechanism of scanning direction-element direction, adaptively select the guided wave velocity in each element direction to calculate the relative delay from the scanning position to each element, and calculate the array flow vector a according to formula (6) p (r,θ).
[0099] S6. Calculation of spatial spectrum
[0100] The inverse modulus of the product of the noise subspace and the array flow pattern vector of the scanning position is calculated according to formula (8) and recorded as the spatial spectrum P (r, θ) of the scanning position.
[0101] S7. Search the monitoring area and locate the damage
[0102] Repeat step 6 to perform a two-dimensional scan of the direction and distance of the monitoring area, with the scanning steps of angle and distance being 1° and 1mm respectively, until the entire monitoring area is scanned, and the damage image is drawn with the spatial spectrum as the pixel value. When the array flow pattern vector matches the true source signal vector, due to its orthogonality with the noise subspace, a peak appears in the spatial spectrum, which is manifested as a bright spot on the damage image, i.e., the damage location, as shown in Figure 7a , 7b As shown in Figure 7c, the positioning results of the three damages are (162mm, 91°), (145mm, 111°) and (179mm, 56°), the angle positioning errors are all less than 2°, and the distance errors are all less than 20mm.
