본 논문에서는 건축물의 안전 진단에 최우선 요소로 고려되는 크랙(Crack : 갈라진 틈)을 영상 처리에 의해 자동 검출하고 크랙의 여러 가지 특징들을 자동으로 추출하는 방법에 대해 제안하고자 한다. 이는 우선 카메라로 입력한 건축불의 영상에서 전처리과정을 통해 잡음제거를 행하고 이에 경계 추출과 세선화 과정을 통해 크랙의 영역을 검출한다. 이후 크랙들의 특징을 추출하기 위해 크랙들을 분할하며 분할된 크랙들에 대해 곡선 적합을 통해 크랙들의 방향과 길이 등과 같은 특징들을 추출해 낸다. 본 논문에서 개발코자 하는 시스템은 크랙들의 특징들을 자동으로 추출해 냄으로써 기초적인 건축물의 안전 진단을 자동으로 행하는 시스템이 되리라 여겨진다.

In this paper, we propose an improved anisotropic diffusion model for micro-crack detection in heterogeneously textured surface of polycrystalline solar wafers. Due to the nature of the image sensor, the gray-level of the diagonal micro-crack is non-uniform. Thus, the conventional algorithms can't fully detect diagonal micro-cracks when the number of iteration is not enough. However, the increasing of the iteration number leads to increase computation time and detects micro-crack thicker than the original micro-crack. In order to overcome this drawback, we use the gradient of north, south, east, and west directions as well as extended directions. To calculate the diffusion coefficients, we compare the gradients of conventional directions and extended directions and apply the larger gradient values to the coefficient function. This is because the proposed method reflects the information of diagonal micro-crack. Comparing to Tsai et al.'s and Ko and Rheem's, the proposed algorithm shows superior efficiency in detecting the diagonal micro-cracks with less iterations in the images of polycrystalline solar wafers. In addition, it also shows that the thickness of segmented micro-crack is similar to the orignal micro-crack.

Ultrasonic inspection method is more profitable than X-ray radiographic inspection in cost and effect of defect detection such as debond, damage, and it doesn't need special constructions. The method can also be a possible real time inspection with safety. This report explains 1)the experiment and analysis of ultrasonic property of solid propellant, 2)the inspection methods of propellant/liner debond by inside or outside inspection, and 3)the inspection methods of propellant microcrack by damage. From the results, it is possible to detect the defect of propellant/liner debond by inside or outside inspection. Futhermore, it can be possible to detect the propellant microcrack caused by damage using the ultrasonic attenuation.

Crack detection on panels during manufacturing process is an important step for ensuring the product quality. The accuracy and efficiency of traditional crack detection methods, which are performed by eye inspection, are dependent on human inspectors. Therefore, implementation of an on-line and precise crack detection is required during the panel pressing process. In this paper, a regular CCTV camera system is utilized to obtain images of panel products and an image process based crack detection technique is developed. This technique uses a comparison between the base image and a test image using an amplitude mapping of the local image. Experiments are performed in the laboratory and in the actual manufacturing lines to evaluate the performance of the developed technique. Experimental results indicate that the proposed technique could be used to effectively detect a crack on panels with high speed.

From among the NDT (nondestructive testing) methods, the MFL (magnetic flux leakage) method is specially suitable for testing pipelines because pipeline has high magnetic permeability. The system applied to MFL method is called the MFL PIG. The previous MFL PIG showed high performance in detecting the metal loss and corrosions. However, MFL PIG is highly unlikely to detect the cracks which occur by exterior-interior pressure difference in pipelines and the shape of crack is long and very narrow. In MFL PIG, the magnetic field is performed axially and there is no changes of cross-sectional area at cracks that the magnetic field passes through. Cracks occur frequently in the pipelines and the risk of the accident from the cracks is higher than that from the metal loss and corrosions. Therefore, the new PIG is needed to be researched and developed for detecting the cracks. The circumferential MFL (CMFL) PIG performs magnetic fields circumferentially and can maximize the magnetic flux leakage at the cracks. In this paper, CMFL PIG is designed and the distribution of the magnetic fields is analyzed by using 3 dimensional nonlinear finite element method (FEM). In CMFL PIG, cracks, standards of NACE, are detectable. To estimate the shape of crack, the leakage of magnetic fields for many kinds of cracks is analyzed and the method is developed by signal processing.

RUS(공명초음파분광법)는 비파괴 검사법의 하나로서 공명 주파수와 주파수 응답을 매우 정확하게 측정할 수 있으며, 탄성학적인 성질과 이방성을 결정하는데 이용 가능하다. Paul Heyliger와 Hassel Ledbetter는 steel block의 표면 크랙과 복합적층물의 내부 손상을 검출하는데 RUS를 사용하였으며, Jay G. Saxton은 RUS를 이용하여 chops, cracks, voids등을 검출하므로써 RUS의 비파괴 검사기능으로서의 가능성을 찾았다. 현재 광섬유 응용 제품에 많이 이용되고 있는 광커넥터는 초정밀 가공을 필요로 하는 중요한 부품으로서 optical fiber, ball lense로 구성되어진다.(중략)

This paper aims to investigate the natural frequency of a cracked cantilever L-beams with a coupled bending and torsional vibrations. In addition, a theoretical method for detection of the crack position and size in a cantilever L-beams is presented based on natural frequencies. Based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, the equation of motion is derived by using extended Hamilton's Principle. The dynamic transfer matrix method is used for calculation of a exact natural frequencies of L-beams. In order to detect the crack of L-beams, the effect of spring coefficients for bending moment and torsional force is included. In this study, the differences between the actual data and predicted positions and sizes of crack are less than 0.5% and 6.7% respectively.

In this paper, the purpose is to study a method for detection of crack in clamped-clamped beams using the vibration characteristics. The natural frequency of beam is obtained by FEM and experiment. The governing differential equations of a Timoshenko beam are derived via Hamilton's principle. The two coupled governing differential equations are reduced to one fourth order ordinary differential equation in terms of the flexural displacement. The crack is assumed to be in the first mode of fracture and to be always opened during the vibrations. The differences between the actual and predicted crack positions and sizes are less than 9.8% and 28%, respectively.
