The invention discloses a
corrosion defect quantitative evaluation method fusing spatial and temporal distribution of multiple
acoustic emission sources, and belongs to the field of
nondestructive testing. The method comprises the following steps: carrying out
acoustic emission event judgment on collected multichannel
acoustic emission original signals, and screening effective acoustic emission event
signal segments; preprocessing all the effective acoustic emission event signals, including band-pass filtering,
window function processing and adjustable
Q factor wavelet transform, and performing time reversal focusing analysis to obtain global
amplitude response distribution of each event
signal and obtain an acoustic emission source position corresponding to each event
signal; all global amplitude responses are accumulated, the
boundary contour and the geometric parameter set of the
corrosion area are extracted through a
spatial clustering algorithm and convex
hull fitting after binarization
processing, and the
boundary contour and the parameter set of the
corrosion area are obtained. According to the method, information of a plurality of acoustic emission events in a section of signal is effectively fused, the accuracy of corrosion defect positioning is improved, and extraction and quantitative characterization of a corrosion defect contour are realized.
