한국 철도교량의 약 46%를 차지하고 있는 강판형교는 노후화 및 진행성 열화로 인해 유지보수에 많은 비용과 노력이 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 강철도교의 다양한 열화조건 중에서 이음부위의 볼트탈락현상을 비파괴 검사방법인 파전달을 이용하여 감지하는 과정을 유한요소해석을 통해 구현하고자 한다. 충격전압이 PZT 패치에 입력되고 이에 의해 발생된 판파(plate wave)인 비대칭 Lamb파의 전달과정을 해석하고 전달시간(time of flight)의 차이와 전달된 에너지(wavelet coefficient)의 변화를 통하여 손상여부와 손상정도 등을 확인하였다. 3차원 유한요소 상세모델을 통해 기본 모드해석, 열린회로(open circuit loop) 동적이력해석을 실행하였고 각 손상 시나리오에 따라 기존 실험결과와 비교분석을 하였다.

The OPMT(Orientation-adjustable Patch-type Magnetostrictive Transducer) was proposed as a tool for generating and measuring the ultrasonic Lamb wave in plate type structures. This sensor has a lot of new features compared to the traditional piezo-type ultrasonic transducers. As an example, it does not need any kind of wiring for lunching or measuring ultrasonic waves. But it has also definite limitation for practical usage as a nondestructive testing tool in that it cannot help rotating the direction of ultrasonic wave manually. The idea for 'scanning OPMT' is proposed in this respect. Two kinds of basic ideas for rotating the wave direction not manually but electrically are proposed. The fabrication of the transducer and the testing for Identifying the primary characteristics are done for one of the proposed transducers. The results says that there are the possibilities as a new tool for NDE in that the proposed transducer follows well the characteristics of the traditional OPMT. But there are also the 1imitations to overcome.

액체금속로 원자로 노심과 내부구조물 들은 불투명한 소듐 내에 잠겨 있어 육안검사를 수행할 수 없다. 액체금속로 내부구조물의 육안검사를 수행하기 위해서는 초음파를 이용한 소듐내부 가시화가 적용되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 소듐내부 가시화에 적용하기 위한 판형 초음파 웨이브가이드 센서를 개발하였다. 웨이브가이드 센서에서의 판파 전파특성을 분석하고 판파 적용모드로 제0차 반대칭 $A_0$ 모드를 선정하였다 웨이브가이드 센서에 액체 웨지를 적용하여 $A_0$ 모드의 저주파수 분산 영역에서 판파가 발진되도록 하였으며 입사펄스의 주파수 변조에 의하여 초음파 빔 방사각을 변환시킬 수 있는 새로운 방법을 제안하였다 본 방법은 웨이브가이드 센서를 기계적으로 구동하지 않고 빔 방사각을 조정할 수 있어 기존 웨이브가이드 센서의 구동 제한성을 극복할 수 있게 해 준다. 웨이브가이드 센서의 빔 방사각 변환 특성을 실험적으로 검증하였으며, 수중 C-스캔 시험을 수행하여 웨이브가이드 센서의 소듐내부 가시화 적용 가능성을 확인하였다.

Finite element model of a cMUT is constructed using the commercial code ANSYS to analyze the cross talk mechanism. Calculation results of the complex load impedance seen by single capacitor cells are presented, and then followed by a calculation of the plane wave real load impedance seen by a parallel combination of many cells that are used to make a transducer. Cross talk between 1-D array elements is found to be due to two main sources: coupling through a Stoneley wave propagating at the transducer-water interface and coupling through Lamb waves propagating in the substrate. To reduce the cross talk level, the effect of various structural variations of the substrate are investigated, which include a change of its thickness and etched trenches or polymer walls between array elements.

In this work, we propose a new ultrasonic damage inspection method in plate structures. The proposed method employs an OPMT(orientation-adjustable patch-type magnetostrictive transducer) in order to make the ultrasonic waves directed to a specific target point. For experiments, virtual grid points were set up at every 50 mm in an aluminum plate and two OPMTs were used for inspection. If there exists a crack in a plate, the reflected Lamb wave from the crack is measured in addition to the direct waves from the transmitting transducer to the receiving transducer.

This paper proposes the technique of estimating the pipe thickness using the measured group velocity. To measure the group velocity from the accelerometer data in the frequency domain, Wigner-Ville distribution is utilized, which interprets the waveform of the shock wave. Using this measured group velocity, this paper proposes the technique to estimate the thickness of pipes with the impact on the pipe. The group velocity is estimated by the modeling correlation between the group velocity and the thickness of the pipe based on the propagation velocities. The correlation model between thickness and group velocity has been proved through the real experiments. The measured group velocity in the frequency-domain is the maximum at the center frequency of the bending waves in the modeling of the group velocity. In addition to these, a smoothing technique for analyzing lamb wave Wigner-Ville distribution has been introduced to improve the reliability of the data acquisition.

This is concerned with the radiation pattern of elastic waves in a plate generated by an orientation-adjustable patch-type magnetostrictive transducer. In general, not only the Lamb waves but also shear horizontal (SH) waves are produced by the deformation of the circular magnetostrictive patch bonded to a plate. Among the two types of waves, this paper investigates the radiation patterns of SH waves. A number of experimental results are presented. They are also accurately predicted by a theory developed by the present authors. Experimental findings were explained by a theoretical analysis.

In these days it is important to secure the life and stability of the structure such as aircrafts, automobiles and building. So the structural health monitoring is needed. In conventional lamb wave techniques, damage is identified by comparing the measured data (baseline signals) and the current data. But this method can lead to high false signal in the intact condition of the structure due to environmental conditions of the structure. As a solution to resolve it, the structural health monitoring method which doesn't use baseline signals is necessary. Damaged structure has unusual elastic wave. This paper proposed a PC(pitch-catch) method which doesn't use baseline signal. New baseline signals can get from detection signal. Damage signals based on new baseline signals. This paper made an image includes damage information by applying damage-signals to beamformming.

Rayleigh wave velocity along a straight survey line on a concrete plate is measured in order to compare different non-destructive data acquisition techniques. Results from a rolling non-contact data acquisition system using air-coupled microphones are compared to conventional stationary accelerometer results. The results show a good match between the two acquisition techniques. Rolling measurements were found to provide a fast and reliable alternative to stationary system for stiffness determination. However, the non-contact approach is shown to be sensitive to unevenness of the measured surface. Measures to overcome this disadvantage are discussed and demonstrated using both forward and reverse rolling measurements.

This study were looks at the effect of the initial cut length or stress concentration level, on the wave forms produced by crack propagation. The signals were collected, then classified visually for each type of sample. They were put into three classes according to their shapes in the time and frequency domain. Each class should domain signals which could be correlated to a certain micro-failure mechanism that occurs during the fatigue process. Classes of these signals compared, with each sample. To see if there were any classes common to the three samples. The fatigue test attempted to determine if the initial cut length has any influence on the type of signals.
