Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of composite material defect detection, and in particular to a method and system for detecting structural defects by mixed-frequency ultrasonic delayed excitation. Background Art

[0002] The statements in this section merely provide background art related to the present invention and do not necessarily constitute prior art.

[0003] Composite materials are widely used in aircraft, rockets, bridges, pipelines, automobiles and other fields due to their high strength and light weight. They can not only reduce the weight of equipment, but also have the advantages of corrosion resistance, anti-aging, anti-fatigue, etc., which can greatly extend the service life of equipment structures. However, due to improper manufacturing process or defects in the material itself, composite materials often have interlayer defects (for example, interlayer separation, interlayer gaps, interlayer impurities, etc.), which will cause insufficient bonding strength between layers, and shear bearing capacity failure is prone to occur under external loads, and even cause huge economic losses or major safety accidents. Therefore, effective identification and positioning of interlayer defects in composite materials is crucial to ensure the safe operation of equipment. Delamination, peeling and other defects inside the structure can generally be identified by ultrasonic detection technology, thermal imaging technology, etc. However, when the delamination is in a very early stage, the transmission coefficient of the defect is very similar to that of the well-bonded area, resulting in the above-mentioned traditional detection technology may not be able to detect the early defect. Therefore, the development of an effective method for identifying and locating structural interlayer defects is a huge challenge in the field of non-destructive testing and structural health monitoring.

[0004] Ultrasonic guided waves are formed by multiple reciprocating reflections and further coupling of elastic waves in the structure. They can propagate throughout the thickness of the thin plate structure. They have the advantages of high speed, high damage sensitivity, and the ability to monitor in-service structures in real time. They have attracted much attention in recent years. Ultrasonic guided wave detection technology can be divided into linear ultrasonic detection methods and nonlinear ultrasonic detection methods. Among them, the linear ultrasonic detection method is based on the principles of sound wave diffraction, reflection and transmission. It characterizes the damage of engineering components by obtaining parameters such as sound velocity and attenuation. It is only suitable for detecting macroscopic delamination damage and has great limitations in the identification of early interlayer defects.

[0005] Nonlinear ultrasonic testing technology can effectively overcome the shortcomings of linear ultrasonic testing technology that is not suitable for early micro-damage detection. By measuring nonlinear parameters such as harmonics and sidebands, it can effectively reflect the early performance degradation of materials and the initiation and evolution of early damage. Studies have shown that the nonlinear components caused by interlayer defects are more significant, and nonlinear mixing acoustic modulation detection technology can significantly stimulate the weak nonlinear effect at the nearly perfect damage interface. In addition, nonlinear mixing acoustic modulation detection technology can be divided into two categories: collinear mixing detection technology and non-collinear mixing detection technology. This technology has obvious advantages such as frequency selectability, direction controllability, and spatial selection, which can significantly improve the detection accuracy and help to achieve damage location. However, the collinear mixing method requires two columns of incident waves on the same axis and has high accuracy requirements, which is difficult to implement. Summary of the invention

[0045] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0046] It should be noted that the following detailed descriptions are exemplary and are intended to provide further explanation of the present invention. Unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meanings as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which the present invention belongs.

[0047] In the absence of conflict, the embodiments of the present invention and the features of the embodiments may be combined with each other.

[0048] Embodiment 1:

[0049] This implementation method proposes a structural defect detection device based on mixed-frequency ultrasonic delayed excitation, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, four piezoelectric ceramic sensors are pasted on the surface of the adhesive structure to form a rectangular excitation-sensing network (a piezoelectric ceramic sensor is arranged at each of the four corner points of the rectangle); wherein the piezoelectric ceramic sensors on the right (the first piezoelectric ceramic sensor and the second piezoelectric ceramic sensor from top to bottom) serve as excitation ends to excite ultrasonic waves, and the piezoelectric ceramic sensors on the left (the third piezoelectric ceramic sensor and the fourth piezoelectric ceramic sensor from top to bottom) serve as receiving ends to receive ultrasonic response signals.

[0050] In this implementation, for non-collinear mixing detection, the traditional acoustic modulation technology is improved by delaying the excitation of the low-frequency pump wave and the high-frequency detection wave, that is, the excitation time of the high-frequency detection wave HF excited by Act1 (i.e., the first piezoelectric ceramic sensor) is delayed by △t relative to the low-frequency pump wave LF excited by Act2 (i.e., the second piezoelectric ceramic sensor). i (i=1,2…m), respectively collect the corresponding mixing response signals Res1 and Res2.

[0051] It also includes a control terminal, which is respectively connected to the four piezoelectric ceramic sensors for controlling the first piezoelectric ceramic sensor to emit a high-frequency detection wave HF and controlling the second piezoelectric ceramic sensor to emit a low-frequency pump wave LF, and for performing defect detection in the modulation aliasing area between the first coordinate and the second coordinate based on the mixed sound waves received by the two piezoelectric ceramic sensors at the receiving end.

[0052] Embodiment 2:

[0053] This implementation is based on the structural defect detection device based on mixed-frequency ultrasonic delayed excitation described in Example 1, and provides a specific structural defect detection method based on mixed-frequency ultrasonic delayed excitation, including the following process:

[0054] When t = 0, the low frequency pump wave LF is excited in the aluminum plate, and the group velocity is C g-L ;

[0055] When t=△t i When the high-frequency detection wave HF is excited, the group velocity is C g-H ;

[0056] Assume that when t=t1, the front end of the excited high-frequency detection wave HF meets the end of the excited low-frequency pump wave LF, and the meeting position coordinates are (x1, y1). The two will interact and generate mixed sound waves. At this time, the motion trajectory of the front end of the high-frequency detection wave H and the motion trajectory of the end of the low-frequency detection wave L are combined to obtain:

[0057]

[0058] Among them, d a d b and d b1 The distances between Act1 (i.e., the first piezoelectric ceramic sensor) and Act2 (i.e., the second piezoelectric ceramic sensor), the distance between Act1 (i.e., the first piezoelectric ceramic sensor) and Rec1 (i.e., the third piezoelectric ceramic sensor), and the distance between Act1 (i.e., the first piezoelectric ceramic sensor) and the meeting position (at this time, d b1 =x1), △t is the delayed excitation time of the high-frequency detection wave H, λ L is the wavelength of the low-frequency pump wave L.

[0059] Assume that when t=t2, the end of the excited high-frequency detection wave H meets the front end of the excited low-frequency pump wave L, and the meeting position coordinates are (x2, y2). At this time, the motion trajectory equation of the end of the high-frequency detection wave H and the motion trajectory equation of the front end of the low-frequency pump wave L are combined to obtain:

[0060]

[0061] Among them, d b1 is the distance between Act1 (i.e., the first piezoelectric ceramic sensor) and the encounter position (at this time, d b1 =x2), λ H is the wavelength of the high-frequency pump wave H. After this moment, since the group velocity of the high-frequency detection wave H is higher than the group velocity of the low-frequency pump wave L, the two are separated from each other and there is no mixing area anymore.

[0062] In the process of scanning in sequence, Figure 3 As shown, for each group of i mixing response signals (i.e., Res1 and Res2) collected by non-collinear mixing detection, bandpass filtering, EMD decomposition and reconstruction, and frequency-energy spectrum analysis are performed, and the modulation sideband parameters are extracted from the time-frequency spectrum to calculate the defect identification parameter γ:

[0063]

[0064] Among them, β Rec1 and β Rec2 Respectively represent the modulation sideband parameters in the response signals Res1 and Res2, and the calculation method of the two is as follows:

[0065]

[0066] Among them, A H±nL , A L and A H Represent the energy of the sideband, low-frequency and high-frequency components in the response spectrum, and calculate β Rec1 When A H±nL , A L and A H Respectively represent the energy of the sideband, low-frequency and high-frequency components in the response spectrum of the response signal Res1, and calculate β Rec2 When A H±nL , A L and A H They respectively represent the energy of the sideband, low-frequency and high-frequency components in the response spectrum of the response signal Res2.

[0067] In this implementation, according to different excitation delay times, the “excitation delay time △t i -defect identification parameter γ" mapping model, according to the positive and negative and change trend of parameter γ, damage can be identified and detected without reference. Specifically, if γ>0, it means that the excitation delay time △t i If γ<0, it means that the excitation delay time △t i In this case, there are no defects in the modulation aliasing region.

[0068] In this implementation, further, the excitation delay time △t corresponding to γ>0 is extracted i , combined with the sound wave propagation speed, the fzero function in Matlab software can be used to solve x1 and x2, and the position of the damage in the x-axis direction (that is, between x1 and x2) can be determined, thereby locating the damage.

[0069] Embodiment 3:

[0070] This implementation is based on the structural defect detection device based on mixed-frequency ultrasonic delayed excitation described in Example 1, and provides a structural defect detection system based on mixed-frequency ultrasonic delayed excitation. The structural defect detection device based on mixed-frequency ultrasonic delayed excitation described in the first aspect of the present invention includes the following processes:

[0072] The damage detection unit is configured as follows: if the defect identification parameter is greater than zero, there is a defect in the modulation aliasing area under the excitation delay time; if the defect identification parameter is less than zero, there is no defect in the modulation aliasing area under the excitation delay time.

[0073] Specifically, in the defect identification parameter calculation unit, bandpass filtering, EMD decomposition and reconstruction, and frequency-energy spectrum analysis are performed on each group of i mixing response signals (i.e., Res1 and Res2) collected by non-collinear mixing detection, and the modulation sideband parameters are extracted from the time-frequency spectrum to calculate the defect identification parameter γ: β Rec1 and β Rec2 Respectively represent the modulation sideband parameters in the response signals Res1 and Res2, and the calculation method of the two is: Among them, A H±nL , A L and A H Represent the energy of the sideband, low-frequency and high-frequency components in the response spectrum, and calculate β Rec1 When A H±nL , A L and A H Respectively represent the energy of the sideband, low-frequency and high-frequency components in the response spectrum of the response signal Res1, and calculate β Rec2 When A H±nL , A L and A H They respectively represent the energy of the sideband, low-frequency and high-frequency components in the response spectrum of the response signal Res2.

[0074] Specifically, in the damage detection unit, according to different excitation delay times, the “excitation delay time △t i -defect identification parameter γ" mapping model, according to the positive and negative and change trend of parameter γ, damage can be identified and detected without reference. Specifically, if γ>0, it means that the excitation delay time △t i If γ<0, it means that the excitation delay time △t i In this case, there are no defects in the modulation aliasing region.

[0075] In this implementation, further, the excitation delay time △t corresponding to γ>0 is extracted i, combined with the sound wave propagation speed, the fzero function in Matlab software can be used to solve x1 and x2, and the position of the damage in the x-axis direction (that is, between x1 and x2) can be determined, thereby locating the damage.

[0076] It is understandable that the above-mentioned units can be separately or completely combined into one or several other units to constitute, or one (some) of the units can be further divided into multiple functionally smaller units to constitute, which can achieve the same operation without affecting the realization of the technical effects of the embodiments of the present application. The above-mentioned units are divided based on logical functions. In practical applications, the functions of one unit can also be implemented by multiple units, or the functions of multiple units can be implemented by one unit. In other embodiments of the present application, the defect detection system may also include other units. In practical applications, these functions can also be implemented with the assistance of other units, and can be implemented by the collaboration of multiple units.

[0077] According to another embodiment of the present application, the system described in this embodiment can be constructed and the defect detection method of the embodiment of the present application can be implemented by running a computer program (including program code) capable of executing the steps involved in the corresponding method described in Example 2 on a general computing device such as a computer including processing elements and storage elements such as a central processing unit (CPU), random access memory (RAM), and read-only memory (ROM).
