Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of ultrasonic body wave propagation direction mapping, and particularly to a method, device, equipment and medium for mapping the propagation direction of ultrasonic body waves. Background Art

[0002] Methods for mapping the propagation directions of body waves (longitudinal waves, transverse waves) in isotropic materials commonly include experimental measurement methods, numerical simulation methods, and acoustic imaging methods.

[0003] The experimental measurement method is to introduce an excitation source, such as a tapping or vibration source, into the material, and then use a sensor to measure the propagation direction and speed of the wave. However, it may be necessary to make the material into a special structure, such as a semi-circular structure, in order to measure ultrasonic signals at different direction angles. The numerical simulation method is to use computer simulation software, such as finite element analysis software, to model the elastic material and simulate the wave propagation process. By observing the simulation results, the wave propagation direction can be determined. However, the simulation results may be affected by model assumptions and parameter selections, and there may be certain errors. The acoustic imaging method is to use acoustic imaging techniques, such as ultrasonic imaging or acoustic emission imaging, to image the elastic material. However, special imaging equipment and techniques are required, and professional operations and interpretations may be needed. Summary of the Invention

It should be understood that such data can be interchanged under appropriate circumstances so that the embodiments of the present invention described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein.

[0043] Figure 1 Schematic structural diagram of an optical transducer provided by an embodiment of the present invention. In the embodiment of the present invention, an optical transducer is used to excite ultrasonic body waves. Refer to Figure 1 , the optical transducer 100 is disposed on one side of the isotropic material 200 to be measured. The optical transducer 100 includes: a laser 110, a polygon mirror 120, and a controller 130.

[0044] In the embodiment of the present invention, the laser 110 is used to output a scanning laser 1. Refer to Figure 1 , the scanning laser 1 irradiates on the polygon mirror 120. The polygon mirror 120 rotates under the control of the controller 130. The polygon mirror 120 reflects the scanning laser 1 to the surface of the isotropic material 200 to be measured on the side close to the optical transducer 100, exciting an ultrasonic body wave front signal.

[0045] It should be noted that Figure 1 both the laser 110 and the polygon mirror 120 in Figure 1 are connected to the controller 130 in a wired or wireless manner (not shown in

[0046] Figure 2 This is a flowchart of a method for mapping the propagation direction of ultrasonic body waves provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Refer to Figure 2 , the method for mapping the propagation direction of ultrasonic body waves includes the following steps:

[0047] S310. Control the laser to output scanning laser.

[0048] Optionally, on the basis of the above embodiment, the scanning laser is a continuous laser.

[0049] S320. Control the polygon mirror to rotate at a preset number of preset rotation speeds, so that the scanning laser scans the surface of the to-be-tested isotropic material near the optical transducer at corresponding different preset scanning speeds.

[0050] It can be understood that, continuing to refer to Figure 1 , by controlling the rotation of the polygon mirror 120 at a preset rotation speed n, it is possible to move the scanning laser 1 from the first position A to the second position B on the surface of the to-be-tested isotropic material 200 at a preset scanning speed V, and excite ultrasonic signals. Among them, the preset scanning speed V of the scanning laser 1 depends on the rotation speed n of the polygon mirror 120 and the vertical distance d from the surface of the polygon mirror 120 to the surface of the to-be-tested isotropic material 200 near the optical transducer 100. It should be noted that at all positions where the scanning laser 1 moves, the surface of the to-be-tested isotropic material 200 will absorb part of the energy of the scanning laser 1 and convert it into heat energy, generating a large local temperature gradient near the irradiation area of the scanning laser 1, resulting in the generation of thermal stress and thus exciting ultrasonic signals.

[0051] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the propagation direction of ultrasonic signals provided by an embodiment of the present invention. For the convenience of understanding the solution of the embodiment of the present invention, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 , Figure 3Take point a as the starting point for the scanning laser 1 to move on the surface of the to-be-tested isotropic material 200 near the optical transducer 100. When the scanning laser 1 irradiates point a, compared with the entire moving process, this stage is very short. However, as long as the power of the scanning laser 1 is high enough, it is sufficient to provide the energy required to excite the ultrasonic signal. At this time, the area near the surface of point a absorbs energy and excites an ultrasonic signal that propagates in the to-be-tested isotropic material 200. It should be noted that in different bulk materials, the propagation direction of the ultrasonic body wave is different, depending on the material properties themselves. After a very short time, the scanning laser 1 moves to the next position b, and point b repeats the physical process of point a, also exciting an ultrasonic signal. During the process of the scanning laser 1 moving from point a to point b, the only difference between the ultrasonic signals excited at point a and point b is that the ultrasonic signal excited at point a propagates farther in the same direction. As the scanning laser 1 continues to move, the above process is continuously repeated, connecting the ultrasonic signals at different excitation points to form an internal ultrasonic body wave front signal w. Assuming that the size of the to-be-tested isotropic material 200 is large enough, ultrasonic signals penetrating the thickness direction can be generated and propagate simultaneously along the directions perpendicular to the ultrasonic propagation direction and the moving direction of the scanning laser 1.

[0052] Among them, the preset quantity can be set according to requirements. The larger the quantity, the more accurate the result of mapping the ultrasonic propagation direction.

[0053] S330. Obtain the propagation direction angles of the ultrasonic body wave front signals corresponding to different preset scanning speeds.

[0054] Optionally, step S130 includes: obtaining the propagation direction angle of the ultrasonic body wave front signal according to the geometric relationship. The geometric relationship includes: Among them, θ is the propagation direction angle of the ultrasonic body wave front signal, V us is the propagation speed of the ultrasonic body wave front signal, and V is the preset scanning speed.

[0055] It can be understood that from a mathematical perspective, it is known that |sinθ| ≤ 1. At the same time, for a given homogeneous isotropic material, the propagation speed of the ultrasonic body wave in the medium is constant. Only when the moving speed of the scanning laser 1 on the surface of the to-be-tested isotropic material 200 (preset scanning speed V) satisfies a certain range can an ultrasonic body wave front signal propagating along the moving direction of the scanning laser 1 be excited.

[0056] S340. Record the time-domain amplitude signals of the ultrasonic body wave front signals at the preset detection points corresponding to different preset scanning speeds. The preset detection points are located on the surface of the to-be-tested isotropic material far from the optical transducer.

[0057] Among them, the number of preset detection points can be set according to the actual situation. The larger the number, the more accurate the result of mapping the ultrasonic propagation direction.

[0058] Continue to refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 , the preset detection point 300 is located on the surface of the isotropic material 200 to be measured on the side away from the optical transducer 100.

[0059] S350. Plot a polar coordinate graph based on the time-domain amplitude signal corresponding to the propagation direction angle of the ultrasonic body wavefront signal.

[0060] In the embodiment of the present invention, by recording the time-domain amplitude signals of the ultrasonic body wavefront signals at the preset detection point 300 corresponding to different preset scanning speeds V, and plotting a polar coordinate graph based on the time-domain amplitude signals corresponding to the propagation direction angles of the ultrasonic body wavefront signals, the mapping of the propagation directivity graph of the ultrasonic body waves inside the opaque material is realized, which helps to improve the detection efficiency of various defects inside the material. By using this method to understand the propagation directivity graphs of the ultrasonic longitudinal wavefront signals and ultrasonic transverse wavefront signals inside the material, reasonable ultrasonic excitation and reception positions can be set to receive reflection and transmission signals, improve the ultrasonic signal-to-noise ratio, and improve the internal defect detection efficiency. In addition, the full-optical excitation method is adopted, which has the advantages of non-contact and no need for a coupling agent.

[0061] Optionally, in one embodiment, the preset number of preset scanning speeds are all greater than the ultrasonic shear wave velocity and less than the ultrasonic longitudinal wave velocity.

[0062] It should be noted that for a given homogeneous isotropic material, the wave velocity V l of the ultrasonic longitudinal wavefront signal and the wave velocity V s of the ultrasonic transverse wavefront signal in the material are constant, and at the same time satisfy V l >V s . It can be known from the mathematical geometric relationship that when the preset scanning speed V satisfies V s <V<V l , a single ultrasonic transverse wavefront signal can be excited and propagated along the moving direction of the scanning laser 1 and perpendicular to the ultrasonic propagation direction. The wavefront angle θ s of the ultrasonic transverse wavefront signal satisfies

[0063] Optionally, on the basis of the above embodiment, the ultrasonic body wavefront signal includes an ultrasonic transverse wavefront signal.

[0064] It should be noted that the propagation direction angle θ′ of the ultrasonic transverse wavefront signal is equal to the wavefront angle θ s of the ultrasonic transverse wavefront signal, that is, θ′ = θ sDuring the movement excitation of the scanning laser 1, the time-domain amplitude signal of the wavefront signal is recorded through a plurality of preset detection points 300. Finally, the time-domain amplitude signals of the propagation direction angles θ′ of different ultrasonic shear wavefront signals are used to draw the propagation direction diagram of the ultrasonic shear wavefront signal in the isotropic material 200 to be measured. The specific operation is to parametrically change the magnitude of the preset scanning speed V under the premise of satisfying V s <V<V l to obtain the wavefront angle θ of different ultrasonic shear wavefront signals s corresponding to the time-domain amplitude signal of the ultrasonic shear wavefront signal, that is, the amplitude signal corresponding to the propagation direction angle θ′ of different ultrasonic shear wavefront signals. Then, according to the amplitudes corresponding to different direction angles θ′ of the ultrasonic shear wavefront signal, a polar coordinate diagram is drawn, and the propagation direction diagram of the ultrasonic shear wavefront signal inside the isotropic material 200 to be measured can be obtained.

[0065] Optionally, in another embodiment, the preset number of preset scanning speeds are all greater than the ultrasonic longitudinal wave speed.

[0066] It should be noted that when the preset scanning speed V is greater than the ultrasonic longitudinal wave speed V l , an ultrasonic longitudinal wavefront signal can be excited and propagated along the moving direction of the scanning laser 1 and perpendicular to the ultrasonic propagation direction. The wavefront angle θ of the ultrasonic longitudinal wavefront signal l satisfies In the case of V>V l , the generation of the ultrasonic shear wavefront signal can also be satisfied simultaneously. The calculation method of the wavefront angle θ of the shear wavefront signal also satisfies s

[0067] Optionally, on the basis of the above embodiment, the ultrasonic body wavefront signal includes the ultrasonic longitudinal wavefront signal.

[0068] It should be noted that when the preset scanning speed V is greater than the wave speed V of the ultrasonic longitudinal wavefront signal l , parametrically changing the magnitude of the preset scanning speed V to obtain the time-domain amplitude signal of the ultrasonic longitudinal wavefront signal corresponding to the wavefront angle θ of different ultrasonic longitudinal wavefront signals, that is, the amplitude signal corresponding to the propagation direction angle θ′ of the ultrasonic longitudinal wavefront signal. Then, according to the amplitudes corresponding to different direction angles θ′ of different ultrasonic longitudinal wavefront signals, a polar coordinate diagram is drawn, and the propagation direction diagram of the ultrasonic longitudinal wavefront signal inside the bulk material can be obtained.

Refer to Figure 4 ​, the device includes: a laser control module 410, a polygon mirror control module 420, a propagation direction angle acquisition module 430, a time-domain signal amplitude recording module 440, and a polar plot drawing module 450.

[0070] In an embodiment of the present invention, the laser control module 410 is used to control the laser to output scanning laser. The polygon mirror control module 420 is used to control the polygon mirror to rotate at a preset number of preset rotation speeds, so that the scanning laser scans the surface of the to-be-measured isotropic material close to the optical transducer side at corresponding different preset scanning speeds.
