Guidedwave-induced rockbolt integrity using Fourier and wavelet transforms
유도파에 대한 푸리에 및 웨이브렛 변환을 이용한 록볼트의 건전도 평가
Abstract
As rock bolts become one of the main support systems in tunnels and underground structures, the integrity of the rock bolts affects the safety of these types of structures. The purpose of this study is the evaluation of rock bolt integrity using Fourier and wavelet transforms of the guided ultrasonic waves. After five rock bolt specimens with various defect ratios are embedded into a large scale concrete block, guided waves are generated by a PZT (lead zirconate titanate) element and measured by an acoustic emission (AE) sensor. The captured signals are analyzed in the frequency domain using the Fourier transform, and in the time-frequency domain using the wavelet transform based on a Gabor wavelet. The spectrum obtained from the Fourier transform shows that a portion of high frequency contents increases with increase in the defect ratio. Peak values in the time-frequency domain represent the interval of travel time of each echo. The energy velocities of the guided waves increase with the defect ratio. This study shows that the spectrum ratio and the energy velocity may be indicators fur the evaluation of rock bolt integrity.
터널과 같은 지하공간 구조물에 있어서 록볼트는 숏크리트와 함께 주요 지보재 중의 하나이며, 그러므로 록볼트 시공품질 정도에 따라 이러한 지중구조물의 안정성에 큰 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 연구의 목적은 록볼트를 따라 전파되는 유도파에 대하여 푸리에 및 웨이브렛 변환을 이용하여 록볼트의 건전도를 평가하는데 있다. 각기 다른 결함비율을 가진 다섯 개의 록볼트 시험체를 제작하여 콘크리트 블록에 매설한 후, PZT(
