One of the most pervasive types of structural problems in aircraft industries is fatigue cracking that can potentially occur without anticipation with catastrophic failures and unexpected downtime. Acoustic emission (AE) is a passive structural health monitoring (SHM) technique, since it offers real time damage detection based on stress waves generated by cracking in the structure. Machine learning techniques have presented great success over the past few years with a large number of applications. This study assesses the progression of damage occurring on glass fiber reinforced polyester composite specimens using two approaches of machine learning, namely, Supervised and Unsupervised learning. A methodology for damage detection and characterization of composite is presented. The result shows that machine learning can predict the failure. All predictive models and their performance as well as AE parameters had a direct relationship with the applied stress values, suggesting that these correlation coefficients are reliable means of predicting fatigue life in a composite material.

Increased attentiveness on the environmental and effects of aging, deterioration and extreme events on civil infrastructure has created the need for more advanced damage detection tools and structural health monitoring (SHM). Today, these tasks are performed by signal processing, visual inspection techniques along with traditional well known impedance based health monitoring EMI technique. New research areas have been explored that improves damage detection at incipient stage and when the damage is substantial. Addressing these issues at early age prevents catastrophe situation for the safety of human lives. To improve the existing damage detection newly developed techniques in conjugation with EMI innovative new sensors, signal processing and soft computing techniques are discussed in details this paper. The advanced techniques (soft computing, signal processing, visual based, embedded IOT) are employed as a global method in prediction, to identify, locate, optimize, the damage area and deterioration. The amount and severity, multiple cracks on civil infrastructure like concrete and RC structures (beams and bridges) using above techniques along with EMI technique and use of PZT transducer. In addition to survey advanced innovative signal processing, machine learning techniques civil infrastructure connected to IOT that can make infrastructure smart and increases its efficiency that is aimed at socioeconomic, environmental and sustainable development.

Baseline Characteristics

Wind turbine blades undergo high operational loads, experience variable environmental conditions, and are susceptible to failures due to defects, fatigue, and weather induced damage. These large-scale composite structures are essentially enclosed acoustic cavities and currently have limited, if any, structural health monitoring in practice. A novel acoustics-based structural sensing and health monitoring technique is developed, requiring efficient algorithms for operational damage detection of cavity structures. This paper describes a systematic approach used in the identification of a competent machine learning algorithm as well as a set of statistical features for acoustics-based damage detection of enclosed cavities, such as wind turbine blades. Logistic regression (LR) and support vector machine (SVM) methods are identified and used with optimal feature selection for decision making using binary classification. A laboratory-scale wind turbine with hollow composite blades was built for damage detection studies. This test rig allows for testing of stationary or rotating blades (each fit with an internally located speaker and microphone), of which time and frequency domain information can be collected to establish baseline characteristics. The test rig can then be used to observe any deviations from the baseline characteristics. An external microphone attached to the tower will also be utilized to monitor blade damage while blades are internally ensonified by wireless speakers. An initial test campaign with healthy and damaged blade specimens is carried out to arrive at certain conclusions on the detectability and feature extraction capabilities required for damage detection.
