Impact Localization

In this work, an impact experiment on a composite plate with unknown material properties (its group velocity profile is unknown) is implemented to localize the impact points. A pencil lead break is used to generate acoustic emission (AE) signals which are acquired by six piezoelectric wafer active sensors (PWAS). These sensors are distributed with a particular configuration in two clusters on the plate. The time of flight (TOF) of acquired signals is estimated at the starting points of these signals. The continuous wavelet transform (CWT) of received signals are calculated with AGU Vallen wavelet program to get the accurate values of the TOF of these signals. Two methods are used for determining the coordinates of impact points (localization the impact point). The first method is the new technique (method 1) by Kundu. This technique has two linear equations with two unknowns (the coordinate of AE source point). The second method is the nonlinear algorithm (method 2). This algorithm has a set of six nonlinear equations with five unknowns. Two MATLAB codes are implemented separately to solve the linear and nonlinear equations. The results show good indications for the location of impact points in both methods. The location errors of calculated impact points are divided by constant distance to get independent percentage errors with the site of the coordinate.

Impact Localization

Two passive smart composite plates are fabricated using one and two PZT patches that are cheaper than the PZT wafer. The composite plate is fabricated in low temperature through the hand lay-up method to avoid PZT patch decoupling and wire spoiling. The locus of the impact point is identified using the output voltage to identify the impact location using one sensor. The output voltages of the sensors are analyzed to identify the impact location using two sensors. The locations of the impacts are determined based on the crossing points of two circles and the origin of an intended Cartesian coordinate system that is concentric with one of the sensors. This study proposes the impact location identification of the passive smart composite using the low-cost PZT patch PIC155 instead of common embedded materials (wafer and element piezoelectric).

Impact Localization

This paper focused on impact localization of composite structures, which possess more complexity in the guided wave propagation because of the anisotropic behavior of composite materials. In this work, a composite plate was manufactured by using a compression molding process with proper pressure and temperature cycle. Eight layers of woven composite prepreg were used to manufacture the composite plate. A structural health monitoring (SHM) technique is implemented with piezoelectric wafer active sensors (PWAS) to detect and localize the impact on the plate. There are two types of impact event are considered in this paper (a) low energy impact event (b) high energy impact event. Two clusters of sensors recorded the guided acoustic waves generated from the impact. The acoustic signals are then analyzed using a wavelet transform based time-frequency analysis. The proposed SHM technique successfully detect and localize the impact event on the plate. The experimentally measured impact locations are compared with the actual impact locations. An immersion ultrasonic scanning method was used to visualize the composite plate before and after the impact event. A high frequency 10 MHz 1-inch focused transducer was used to scan the plate in the immersion tank. Scanning results show that there is no visible manufacturing damage in the composite plate. However, clear impact damage was observed after the high-energy impact event.
