Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of wood nondestructive testing, and in particular relates to a wood structure damage detection method and system based on acoustic emission effective energy density. Background Art

[0002] Wood is prone to microscopic and macroscopic damage during use, and the accumulation of damage can lead to structural failure and serious consequences such as collapse. Therefore, dynamic monitoring of the degree of wood damage is the key to ensuring the safe use of wooden structures.

[0003] As a non-metallic material, wood has very limited non-destructive testing methods. Currently, the most widely used non-destructive testing methods are based on the principle of mechanical waves. Such methods mainly include three detection technologies: stress wave, ultrasonic wave and acoustic emission. Among them, stress wave and ultrasonic wave are essentially an active detection method based on the excitation-response mode, which are usually only applicable to local static non-destructive testing. Acoustic emission technology is a global passive dynamic detection method. Its basic principle is that when wood is damaged, it releases strain energy in the form of mechanical waves, and this mechanical wave is also called acoustic emission signal. Therefore, by collecting and analyzing the acoustic emission signals generated during the use of wood, the degree of damage and health level of wood can be objectively evaluated.

[0004] The application of acoustic emission technology in wood can be traced back to the 1960s, but related research mainly focuses on wood acoustic emission signals and their propagation characteristics. In the early days, due to the limitations of signal acquisition equipment, the damage process of wood was qualitatively described mainly through the measurement parameters given by the acoustic emission instrument. With the rapid development of signal acquisition and storage equipment, in the past decade or so, many scholars have conducted in-depth research on the propagation characteristics of acoustic emission signals in wood, such as propagation speed, energy attenuation, and acoustic emission source positioning, from the perspective of acoustic emission waveforms, thus providing a new way for wood damage monitoring based on acoustic emission.

[0005] Existing patents for acoustic emission nondestructive testing of wood mainly include aspects such as acoustic emission signal acquisition, acoustic emission signal processing, and acoustic emission detection related devices. Among them, patent CN104634878A is a wood damage monitoring method based on acoustic emission technology, which uses wireless transmission to collect acoustic emission signals detected on site. Patent CN116297867A is a wood crack depth detection method based on acoustic emission multi-parameter coupling, which invented a wood crack depth detection method based on acoustic emission technology. Patent CN110196283A is a wood structure damage acoustic emission nondestructive testing method based on instantaneous frequency, which qualitatively evaluates the degree of damage to the wood structure by analyzing the instantaneous frequency of the acoustic emission signal during the wood damage process. Patent CN117783294B is a wood damage dynamic detection method and system based on acoustic emission energy entropy, which evaluates the degree of damage to the wood by calculating the signal energy entropy after wavelet decomposition.

[0006] At present, in the detection of wood damage using acoustic emission technology, it is necessary to perform time-frequency domain analysis or decomposition on the original collected acoustic emission signal. Patent CN110196283A is a method for nondestructive detection of wood structure damage based on instantaneous frequency. It is necessary to perform empirical mode decomposition on the original acoustic emission signal and then calculate the corresponding instantaneous frequency; Patent CN117783294B is a method and system for dynamic detection of wood damage based on acoustic emission energy entropy. It is necessary to perform wavelet packet decomposition on the original acoustic emission signal and then calculate the energy entropy. Although the instantaneous frequency and energy entropy indicators proposed in these patents can objectively reflect the degree of wood damage, in order to obtain these indicators, the acquisition system needs to have a very high data processing capability, which seriously limits the promotion and use of these methods in practical applications. Secondly, since the energy of the acoustic emission signal is the most direct reflection of the strain energy released when the wood is damaged, the energy of the acoustic emission signal is the most critical and essential basis for evaluating wood damage. However, there is no report on the method of directly using the energy of the acoustic emission signal to evaluate the degree of wood damage.

[0007] Therefore, how to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology is an urgent problem to be solved in the field of wood non-destructive testing technology. Summary of the invention

[0017] ;

[0018] Among them, y k is the signal amplitude of the kth signal in X whose absolute value is greater than or equal to 0.5V; k=1,2,...,S;

[0026] Furthermore, in step (4), the value range of ρ is [0,1].

[0027] Furthermore, the method also includes the following steps: recording the dynamic effective energy density and damage level, wherein the damage level is divided into four levels: slight, moderate, severe, and serious damage.

[0028] Furthermore, the method further comprises the following steps: recording the waveform of Y, and when Y is assessed as moderately damaged, marking a warning at the corresponding waveform peak;

[0029] When Y is assessed as severely damaged, a warning word is marked at the corresponding waveform peak;

[0030] When Y is assessed as severely damaged, the word "Danger" is marked at the corresponding waveform peak.

[0031] The present invention also provides a wood structure damage detection system based on effective energy density of acoustic emission, which adopts the above-mentioned wood structure damage detection method based on effective energy density of acoustic emission, and includes: an acoustic emission sensor, a preamplifier, a high-speed data acquisition card, a computer and a signal acquisition trigger switch;

[0036] The high-speed data acquisition card transmits the acquired original acoustic emission signal to the Lab VIEW data processing platform of the computer, and then performs detection according to steps (2) to (5).

[0037] Further, the preamplifier is a 40dB preamplifier.

[0038] Furthermore, the high-speed data acquisition card is an 8-channel high-speed data acquisition card, and the signal acquisition frequency is set to 500kHz.

Aiming at the problem of evaluating the degree of wood damage, the present invention proposes a grading evaluation method based on the effective energy density of the acoustic emission signal.

[0040] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0041] (1) Patents CN110196283A and CN117783294B both require continuous acquisition of acoustic emission signals, which not only greatly occupies storage space, but also acquires a lot of redundant signals, which easily affects the accuracy of the results; while the present invention can dynamically trigger signal acquisition according to the amplitude of the acoustic emission signal, saving the storage space for acquisition;

[0043] (3) Patent CN117783294B divides wood damage into three evaluation levels: mild, moderate, and severe based on acoustic emission signals, while the classification of the present invention is more refined. The present invention provides four evaluation levels for wood damage: mild, moderate, severe, and serious damage, which can more effectively and accurately adopt different subsequent treatment methods for different levels;

[0044] (4) Patent CN117783294B requires wavelet packet decomposition of the original acoustic emission to realize wood damage detection; while the present invention directly realizes in-situ dynamic non-destructive testing of wood structures based on the effective energy density index of the original acoustic emission signal, and then provides a dynamic damage level evaluation report, providing a diagnostic basis for the safe and healthy use of wood structures.

[0112] When the amplitude of the original acoustic emission signal reaches or exceeds the set threshold, the signal acquisition trigger switch 5 is closed;

[0113] The high-speed data acquisition card 3 transmits the acquired original acoustic emission signal to the Lab VIEW data processing platform of the computer 4, and then performs detection according to steps (2) to (5).

[0114] Example 5

[0115] like Figure 2 As shown, a wood structure damage detection system based on acoustic emission effective energy density adopts the wood structure damage detection method based on acoustic emission effective energy density described in Example 1, Example 2 or Example 3, comprising: an acoustic emission sensor 1, a preamplifier 2, a high-speed data acquisition card 3, a computer 4 and a signal acquisition trigger switch 5;

[0116] The acoustic emission sensor 1 is installed in the length direction of the wood to be detected, and is used to collect the original acoustic emission signal of the wood to be detected;

[0117] The input end of the preamplifier 2 is connected to the output end of the acoustic emission sensor 1, and is used to amplify the collected original acoustic emission signal of the wood to be detected;

[0118] The output end of the preamplifier 2 is connected to the input end of the high-speed data acquisition card 3 through the signal acquisition trigger switch 5; the high-speed data acquisition card 3 is used to collect the original acoustic emission signal amplified by the preamplifier 2;

[0119] When the amplitude of the original acoustic emission signal reaches or exceeds the set threshold, the signal acquisition trigger switch 5 is closed;

[0120] The high-speed data acquisition card 3 transmits the acquired original acoustic emission signal to the Lab VIEW data processing platform of the computer 4, and then performs detection according to steps (2) to (5) to output a damage level evaluation report. The report includes the effective energy density and damage level; it also includes the waveform of Y.

[0122] When Y is assessed as severely damaged, the word "Danger" is marked at the corresponding waveform peak.

[0123] Preamplifier 2 is a 40dB preamplifier.

[0124] The high-speed data acquisition card 3 is an 8-channel high-speed data acquisition card, and the signal acquisition frequency is set to 500kHz.

[0125] Application Example 1

[0126] Beech was used as the wood to be tested. The specifications of the wood to be tested were 300 mm×20 mm×20 mm (axial×tangential×radial). A three-point bending test was carried out using a UTM5105 electronic universal mechanical testing machine. The test parameters were set according to ASTM-D198-21a, and the loading speed was 2 mm / min.

[0127] Based on NI USB-6366 acquisition card and LabVIEW software, the acoustic emission sensor used is RS-2A single-ended resonant AE sensor with a resonant frequency of 150kHz. The preamplifier uses a PAI preamplifier with a gain of 40dB to amplify the signal received by the acoustic emission sensor. The maximum amplitude of the signal is 10V, and the sampling frequency is set to 500kHz.

[0128] The acoustic emission sensor was placed vertically at a distance of 80 mm from the pressure head of the mechanical testing machine. The pressure head was located in the center of the specimen and pressure was applied continuously at a constant speed of 2 mm / min.

[0129] In order to illustrate the advantages of the present invention in more detail, the time interval is refined. In this example, 9 effective acoustic emission signals (such as Figure 3), and the damage level is divided according to the effective energy density index, and the warning information of "Attention!", "Warning!" and "Danger!" are respectively marked in the waveform for the moderate, severe and serious levels, as shown in Table 1, which provides an intuitive criterion for dynamic damage monitoring of wooden structures. Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: 1) Only effective acoustic emission signals are collected, which effectively reduces the signal storage space; 2) The effective energy density index can be calculated without any time-frequency domain analysis of the original collected signals, so as to evaluate the degree of damage from the essence of energy. 3) The warning information is directly marked on the acoustic emission waveform, which is more intuitive and effective.

[0131]

[0132] Application Example 2

[0133] Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica was used as the wood to be tested. The specifications of the wood to be tested were 1500 mm×30 mm×60 mm (axial×tangential×radial). A three-point bending test was carried out using a UTM5105 electronic universal mechanical testing machine. The test parameters were set according to ASTM-D198-21a, and the loading speed was 2 mm / min.

[0134] Based on NI USB-6366 acquisition card and LabVIEW software, the acoustic emission sensor used is RS-2A single-ended resonant AE sensor with a resonant frequency of 150kHz. The preamplifier uses a PAI preamplifier with a gain of 40dB to amplify the signal received by the acoustic emission sensor. The maximum amplitude of the signal is 10V, and the sampling frequency is set to 500kHz.

[0135] The acoustic emission sensors were placed vertically at 80 mm and 880 mm away from the pressure head of the mechanical testing machine. The two emission sensors were placed on the same side of the pressure head. The pressure head was 200 mm away from the end face of the specimen, and pressure was applied continuously at a constant speed of 2 mm / min.

[0136] In order to illustrate the advantages of the present invention in more detail, the time interval is refined. In this example, the first acoustic emission sensor extracts 6 effective acoustic emission signals (such as Figure 4 ), the second acoustic emission sensor extracted two valid acoustic emission signals from the 200-second test (such as Figure 5 );

[0137] Because the first acoustic emission sensor is closer to the pressure head, the number and amplitude of the effective acoustic emission signals are higher than the effective acoustic emission signals collected by the second acoustic emission sensor. The two acoustic emission sensors detected the moderate damage level of the wood to be tested at 14.37 seconds and 14.38 seconds respectively, and the effective energy density calculated by the signal collected by the first acoustic emission sensor was significantly higher than the effective energy density calculated by the signal collected by the second acoustic emission sensor, indicating that the damage location is closer to the first acoustic emission sensor, which is consistent with the test results.
