It is important from prevention of the malfunction and an important accident by the failuer, to detect a failuer in revolution devices. The acoustic emission(AE) method is expected as means that defects an abnormal phenomenon of revolution devices earlily and utilized. Although a research example by the AE method is reported regarding a gears, little reserch has been conducted using the AE method for running gears in a bending fatigue process of spur gear teeth. Therefore, in this report, with two micro AE sensors attached to the side of the gear, AE was measured in a bending fatigue process of a carburizing gear by using the power circurating-type machine and AE source location in gear teeth were required. By various analysis in these data, the AE characteristics in the fatigue damaging process of the gear tooth were determined.

In this study, the leak detection technique of pressure vessel by using acoustic emission(AE) signal is suggested experimentally. The leak of pressure vessel is located at the welding line due to welding defects. we measured the AE signal using Rl5I sensor, and examined the AE parameters in leak condition. It is investigated that the mean value of AE signal is dependent on leak source location. So the absolute mean value of AE signal is adopted as dominant AE parameter. We proposed leak detection algorithm using AE signal mean value for monitoring the leak source location.

This study was conducted to develop the crack location technique for CFRP reinforced concrete beam using AE method. To experimentally prove the crack source location made of four reinforced concrete beams strengthened in shear with CFRP. The results compared the real cracking location with the source location has perceived by AE monitoring, before it is appeared the primary crack by visual observation. So, This study used by a basic data in constructing the system of the failure warning at application.

This study was conducted to evaluate structural integrity and crack source location of plain concrete beams using acoustic emission. Three point bending tests were carried out plain concrete specimen under cyclic loadings. The variable is W/C of concrete. From the tests it was shown that a breakdown of the kaiser effect and high AE activities during unloading could be effective indices to estimate the level of deterioration in plain concrete structures. The time and location and propagation of crack could be easily determined by monitoring AE, which concludes that AE technique can be a very useful tool to evaluate structural integrity of concrete plain beams.

The behaviour of pressure vessel made of SS41 steel was investigated during hydrotest. AE tests were carried out for the vessels in as-manufactured, V-notched and weld-cracked state using microcomputer-based AE instrumentation. The following results were obtained: 1) In the case of source location using cylindrical program, to minimize the error of source location, the difference of max. Delta T values measured from each sensor should be kept as small as possible. 2) When crack grew, AE event rate increased continuously but AE event from the inclusions occurred intermittently, so by analyzing event rate, the source of AE could be derived. 3) From the spot welding part of supporter, many events with low energy occurred independent of Kaiser effect, which could be confirmed by analyzing energy parameter. 4) The b-value from the tensile specimen of was lower than that from normal specimen and the b-value from crack propagation was lower than that from deformation, so by analyzing peak amplitude distribution, the source mechanism could be derived from the b-value.

복합재 날개 구조물에 대한 구조 건전성 및 손상을 평가하기 위하여 정적 구조강도시험에 음향방출(AE)법이 응용되었다. 시험중 스트레인과 변위측정기법을 통하여 정적구조강도를 확인하였고, 음향방출요소 분석과 위치표정기법을 통하여 구조물의 내부 손상을 평가하고 손상위치를 찾을 수 있었다. 시험은 설계제한하중시험, 2차에 걸친 설계극한 하중시험, 파단시험이 수행되었다. 주요한 AE신호는 front lug근처의 표면에 부착된 센서에 의하여 감지되었다. 특히 1차 설계극한하중시험에서 스트레인 및 변위결과는 내부 손상을 보이지 않았으나 AE신호는 내부 손상이 이미 형성된 현상을 나타내었다. 파단시험에서는 AE활성도가 매우 활발하였고, 스트레인 및 변위의 결과는 심한 손상에 의하여 하중경로가 바뀌는 경향을 나타내었다. 음향방출법을 적용하여 정적 구조시험이 진행되는 동안 내부손상이 발생되는 하중과 위치를 정확하게 평가할 수 있었다. 본 연구로부터 음향방출법은 정적 구조강도시험에 있어 내부 손상을 평가하는데 유용한 기법임이 확인되었다.

The application and development of on-line monitoring technology of AE to surveillance of crack propagation will contribute to the structural integrity of reactor pressure vessel and piping system. This research has been performed in order to obtain the evaluation technology for source location of AE and the analysis for the AE signal of the welded specimen. AE is detected by 4-channels AE system during pressurization in small pressure vessels. The cracking of artificial defects can be accurately located and categorized in real time. The welded specimens have more events rate and higher amplitude than the weldless less specimens, and the events rate have a peak around the yield point and just before the failure under tensile test.

The ability to locate the defects in materials is one of the major attrations of the acoustic emission(AE) technique. The most conventional method for planar AE source localization is to place three or more AE sensors on the plate and to determine the source position by measuring the differences in the arrival times of the AE wave at the sensors, which is called as triangulation method. But this method can not be applied in the material of which elastic wave propagtion velocity is not known. In this paper, we propose two methods, vector method and error minimization method, for AE source location on the material with unknown AE wave velocity. In this method, it is not needed to know the propagation velocity previously, that is, we can apply this method to arbitrary material of which properties are not known exactly. Also, in this paper, the robustness to the error in the measurement of time differences are discussed for both methods. Finally, in order to evaluate the actual performances, experiments using a pencil lead break as the AE source were carried out on the aluminum plate.

2차원 음향방출 위치표정에서 전통적인 방법으로 문턱 전압값을 설정하여 도달시간차를 측정함으로써 2개의 쌍곡선을 형성하는 데는 해당 구조물에서 직접 측정한 속도를 이용하게 된다. 복합재료 적층판과 같은 이방성 재료에서는 섬유의 배열방향에 따라 탄성계수가 변하므로 속도가 섬유의 방향성에 의존하게 된다. 따라서 임의의 위치에서 발생한 탄성파의 도달시간차 측정에 의한 위치표정의 오차가 커지며, 위치표정의 과정이 복잡해지는 것을 피할 수 없다. 본 연구에서는 전통적인 음향방출 위치표정에서 쌍곡선의 2중 교점의 오차를 정정하기 위해 사용되어야 하는 제 4의 센서를 사용하지만 속도변화에 기인하는 위치표정의 오차를 줄일 수 있는 방법으로 수치해석에 의해 비선형방정식을 풀어내는 위치표정 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 또한 제안된 방법이 전통적인 방법에 비해 이방성 판에서의 2차원 위치 표정을 보다 간단하게 수행하고, 정확도를 향상할 수 있는 방법임을 실험적으로 입증하였다.

이방성 복합재료 적층판에서는 섬유의 배열방향에 따라 탄성계수가 변하므로 속도가 섬유의 방향성에 의존하게 된다. 등방성 속도를 기준으로 도달 시간차를 측정하는 전통적인 2차원 음향방출 위치표정 방법을 그대로 적용할 경우 위치표정의 오차가 매우 커지며, 그 과정이 복잡해지는 것을 피할 수 없다. 본 연구에서는 위치표정의 대상이 되는 관심영역(ROI)를 마치 유한요소법에서 사용하는 메쉬(mesh)처럼 적절한 크기의 정사각형 요소로 나눈 뒤, 각각을 가상의 AE 발생원으로 간주하였으며, 모든 요소에 대해 이방성을 고려한 속도를 기준으로 각 센서와의 도달시간차를 구하였다. 실험적인 검증을 위하여 알루미늄 박판 및 복합재료 적층판에 대해 $0^{\circ}$ 부터 $90^{\circ}$까지의 속도를 측정하고 위치표정을 실시함으로써 이방성 적층복합재로 이루어진 실제 구조물에서의 실시간 활용가능성을 확인하였다.
