Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a phased array ultrasonic testing method for deep debonding defects in multilayer curved surface components, belonging to the field of nondestructive testing technology. Background Technology

[0002] Multi-layer curved surface components, due to their advantages in both lightweight structure and mechanical performance, are widely used in key fields such as aerospace, high-end equipment manufacturing, and new energy. The bonding integrity between the layers of materials directly determines the overall load-bearing capacity and service safety of the component. Deep debonding, a common hidden defect in such components, gradually expands during service, leading to a decrease in structural strength, functional failure, and even safety accidents. Therefore, accurate detection of deep debonding defects in multi-layer curved surface components is a core link in ensuring the reliable operation of related equipment. Ultrasonic testing technology, with its strong penetration ability, moderate testing cost, and convenient operation, has become one of the mainstream technologies for detecting internal defects in components and is widely used in the identification of defects in layered structures. Its core principle is to locate and characterize debonding defects by analyzing the changes in the propagation characteristics of ultrasonic waves inside the component.

[0003] Traditional ultrasonic testing methods have significant limitations when dealing with multi-layered curved components, making it difficult to meet the accuracy requirements for deep debonding detection. On the one hand, traditional testing techniques are mostly based on planar or single-layered structures, failing to fully consider the interlayer acoustic impedance coupling effect and the influence of surface curvature on ultrasonic wave propagation in multi-layered curved components. This results in large deviations in the predicted sound wave propagation path, making deep defect signals easily interfered with. On the other hand, traditional methods do not quantify the impact of transducer parameters on imaging effects, making it impossible to adjust them according to the component's material properties and defect distribution. This makes it difficult to balance penetration and resolution, and lacks a targeted signal compensation mechanism. When dealing with materials with high acoustic attenuation, the problems of defect signal amplitude attenuation and phase distortion are prominent, leading to a decrease in the signal-to-noise ratio. This, in turn, results in missed detections, false detections, or positioning errors of deep debonding defects. Furthermore, traditional testing procedures lack a systematic error calibration mechanism, and the disconnect between simulation and experimental data further restricts the improvement of testing accuracy.
