Abstract

In this paper, a magnetic flux leakage(MFL) based steel bar damage detection was first researched to quantify the signals from damages on the wire rope. Though many researches inspecting damages using a MFL method was proceeded until the present, the researches are at the level that diagnose whether damages are or not. This has limitation to take measures in accordance with the damage level. Thus, a MFL inspection system was modeled using a finite element analysis(FEM) program dealing with electromagnetism problems, and a steel bar specimen was adopted as a ferromagnetic object. Then, an experimental study was also carried out to verify the simulation results with a steel bar which has same damage conditions as the simulation. The MFL signals was nearly not affected by the increase of the inspection velocity, and the magnitudes of the signals are not identical according to the change of the defect width even the defects have same depth. On the basis of the analysis, the signal properties from the damages were extracted to classify the type of damages, and it could be confirmed that classification of damages using extracted signal properties is feasible.

본 논문에서는 와이어로프 손상의 정량화를 위하여 먼저 동일한 소재 및 직경을 가지는 강봉을 이용한 누설자속기반 결함탐상 연구를 진행하였다. 현재까지 국외 및 국내에서 누설자속탐상 기법을 이용하여 결함을 탐상하는 연구가 많이 진행되어 왔지만, 그 손상을 진단하는 것에 그쳐 손상의 정도를 판별하여 그에 따른 적절한 조치를 취하는 것에 어려움이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 전자기적 유한요소 해석 프로그램을 이용하여 누설자속탐상 시스템을 모델링하였으며 강봉을 강자성체 시편으로 이용하여 누설자속탐상 시뮬레이션을 진행하였다. 또한 시뮬레이션 결과를 검증하기 위하여 실제 강봉에 시뮬레이션과 동일한 종류의 손상을 가공하여 결함탐상 실험을 진행하였다. 시뮬레이션과 실험 데이터를 분석한 결과 탐상 속도는 신호의 크기에 미소한 영향을 주었으며, 손상의 너비 변화에 따라 신호의 크기가 동일하지 않음을 검증할 수 있었다. 본 분석을 토대로 깊이 손상과 너비 손상에서의 신호 특성을 추출하여 손상의 종류를 분별할 수 있었고, 역으로 추출된 신호의 특성을 이용하여 손상의 종류를 판별할 수 있는 가능성을 확인하였다.
