This paper describes wavenumber filtering for damage detection using single-frequency standing wave excitation and laser scanning sensing. An embedded piezoelectric sensor generates ultrasonic standing waves, and the responses are measured using a laser Doppler vibrometer and mirror tilting device. After scanning, newly developed damage detection techniques based on wavenumber filtering are applied to the full standing wave field. To demonstrate the performance of the proposed techniques, several experiments were performed on composite plates with delamination and aluminum plates with corrosion damage. The results demonstrated that the developed techniques could be applied to various structures to localize the damage, with the potential to improve the damage detection capability at a high interrogation speed.

This study proposed a damage location estimation method for automated image-based port infrastructure inspection. Memory efficiency was improved by calculating the homography matrix using feature detection technology and outlier removal technology, without going through the 3D modeling process and storing only damage information. To develop an algorithm specialized for port infrastructure, the algorithm was optimized through ground-truth coordinate pairs created using images of port infrastructure. The location errors obtained by applying this to the sample and concrete wall were (X: 6.5cm, Y: 1.3cm) and (X: 12.7cm, Y: 6.4cm), respectively. In addition, by applying the algorithm to the concrete wall and displaying it in the form of an exterior damage map, the possibility of field application was demonstrated.

In this paper, a new algorithm is proposed to estimate the damage size by combining the reflected area with the reflected position and extracting contours in proportion to the maximum value of pixels from the visible image. The cumulative summation feature vector algorithm is used to obtain the area of the reflected signal. To get the position of the reflected signal, the signal correlation algorithm is used to decompose the reflected signal from the damage. The proposed algorithm is tested and validated for composite panels. Repetitive experiments are performed and it is confirm that the proposed algorithm is reproducible. Further, it is verified that the damage size can be estimated appropriately by the proposed algorithm.

How to efficiently and accurately detect the damages generated in a structure has become an important issue for structural health monitoring (SHM). Most existing SHM techniques require the baseline data which should be measured before a structure get damaged. Thus, this paper presents a new pitch-catch method-based SHM technique which will not require the baseline data any more. In the proposed SHM technique, the imaging method is also utilized to visualize damage locations. The proposed SHM technique is then validated through the damage detection texts for damaged aluminum plates.

석유 및 천연가스 생산에 사용되는 고정식 해양플랜트에는 자켓 구조물이 가장 많이 사용되고 있다. 생산에 사용되는 자켓 구조물은 풍하중이나 파랑하중에 의해 인명의 피해 없이 변위 및 응력에 대해 안전해야 한다. 그러나 1940년대 후반부터 사용되어 온 자켓 구조물은 피로하중, 노후화로 인해 내구성에 문제가 생기고 있다. 본 논문에서는 자켓 구조물의 안전성을 검토하기 위해 모드형상을 이용하여 자켓 구조물의 손상 위치를 탐색하는 방법을 제시한다. 제시한 손상탐지기법의 효용성을 입증하기 위해 자켓 구조물의 유한요소모델에 임의의 손상을 모사하였다. 유한요소모델의 손상 전 모드형상과 손상 후 모드형상의 모달 변형에너지의 변화를 이용하여 손상 지수를 유도하고 유도한 손상지수를 사용하여 손상이 있는 부재와 손상이 없는 부재를 분류하였다. 연구 결과 손상지수가 '0'인 부재를 제외한 나머지 부재 모두 본 연구에서 제시한 손상탐지기법으로 손상 부재를 판별할 수 있었다.

As aircrafts are being operated at high altitude, wing structures experience various fatigue loadings under cryogenic environments. As a result, fatigue damage such as a crack could be develop that could eventually lead to a catastrophic failure. For this reason, fatigue damage monitoring is an important process to ensure efficient maintenance and safety of structures. To implement damage detection in real-world flight environments, a special cooling chamber was built. Inside the chamber, the temperature was maintained at the cryogenic temperature, and harmonic fatigue loading was given to a wing structure. In this study, piezoelectric active-sensing based guided waves were used to detect the fatigue damage. In particular, a beamforming technique was applied to efficiently measure the scattering wave caused by the fatigue damage. The system was used for detection, growth monitoring, and localization of a fatigue crack. In addition, a sensor diagnostic process was also applied to ensure the proper operation of piezoelectric sensors. Several experiments were implemented and the results of the experiments demonstrated that this process could efficiently detect damage in such an extreme environment.

In this paper, an algorithm to locate and size damage in a complex truss structure using the time domain response is presented. Sampled response data for specific time interval is spatially expanded over the structure to obtain the mean train energy for each element of the structure. The mean strain energy for each element is, in turn, used to build a damage index that represents the ratio of the stiffness parameter of the pre-damaged to the post-damaged structure. The validity of the methodology is demonstrated using data from a numerical example of a space truss structure with simulated damage. Also in the example, the effects of noisy data on the proposed algorithm are examined by adding random noised to the response data.
