Theoretical relationships have been drawn between acoustic emission (AE) and the metal cutting process parameters by relating the energy content of the AE signal to the plastic work of deformation which generates the emission signals. The RMS value of the emission signal is expressed in terms of the basic cutting parameters. Results are presented for 6061-T6 aluminum and SAE 1018 steel over the range of speeds 25.2 to 372 sfm (0.128 to 1.9 m/s) and rake angles 10 to 40 deg. Good correlation has been found between predicted and experimental signal energy levels. In addition, AE generation from chip contact along the tool face is studied and the AE energy level reflects the existence of chip sticking and sliding on the tool face, and indicates the feasibility of utilizing AE in tool wear sensing.

In hard turning, tool wear of cutting tool crossing the limit is highly undesirable because it adversely affects the surface finish. Hence continuous, online tool wear monitoring during the process is essential. The analysis of Acoustic Emission (AE) signal generated during conventional machining has been studied by many investigators for understanding the process of metal cutting and tool wear phenomena. In this experimental study on hard turning, the skew and kurtosis parameters of root mean square values of AE signal (AERMS) have been used for online monitoring of a Cubic Boron Nitride (CBN) tool wear.

Comprehensive experiments have been conducted to determine the influence of cutting conditions on the generation of Acoustic Emission (AE) signals while machining S45C steel. The simultaneous observation of AE-sensor signals and tool dynamometer signals provides extensive data on the orthogonal cutting process. Theoretical relationships drawn between the energy content of the AE-signal and the plastic work of deformation in the primary and secondary cutting zone will be discussed with these data. In addition, shortcomings of the established theory will be highlighted. A relationship between the AE-signals generated and the strain rate will be estimated. The influence of flank wear on the generation of AE signals will be emphasized. Finally, the feasibility of utilizing AE in tool wear sensing will be pointed out while comparing AE-signal generation and machining force measurements for the orthogonal cutting process.

The formation of cold cracks during welding of high strength steels is almost always preceded by martensite formation. Real time detection of both the martensite and cracks formed is a basic necessity of automated welding systems. Acoustic emission has been found to be highly suited for this purpose. Unfortunately, most of the work done to date on AE generation during martensitic phase transformation has been qualitative in nature. This paper presents a quantitative analysis of AE signal generation during martensite formation, using an energy method. This formulation relates the chemical free energy change which is the driving force for the transformation to the RMS value which is a measure of the energy content of AE signals. The analysis shows that the RMS signal is dependent on carbon concentration, volume transformed, cooling rate, and temperature. This is consistent with previous experimental work.

This work presents an experiment research on Acoustic emission (AE) signal and the surface roughness of cylindrical plunge grinding with the different infeed time. The changed infeed time of grinding process is researched as an important parameter to compare AE signals and surface roughnesses with the different infeed time in the grinding process. The experiment results show the AE signal is increased by the increased feed rate. In the infeed period of the grinding process, the surface roughness is increased at first, and then is decreased.

It is known that adequate knowledge of the sensitivity of acoustic emission signal parameters to various experimental parameters is indispensable. According to the review of the literature, a lack of knowledge was noticeable concerning the behavior of acoustic emission parameters under a broad range of machining parameters. This becomes more visible in milling operations that include sophisticated chip formation morphology and significant interaction effects and directional pressures and forces. To remedy the aforementioned lack of knowledge, the effect of the variation of cutting parameters on the time and frequency features of acoustic emission signals, extracted and computed from the milling operation, needs to be investigated in a wide aspect. The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of cutting parameters including the feed rate, cutting speed, depth of cut, material properties, as well as cutting tool coating/insert nose radius on computed acoustic emission signals featured in the frequency domain. Similar studies on time-domain signal features were already conducted. To conduct appropriate signal processing and feature extraction, a signal segmentation and processing approach is proposed based on dividing the recorded acoustic emission signals into three sections with specific signal durations associated with cutting tool movement within the work part. To define the sensitive acoustic emission parameters to the variation of cutting parameters, advanced signal processing and statistical approaches were used. Despite the time features of acoustic emission signals, frequency domain acoustic emission parameters seem to be insensitive to the variation of cutting parameters. Moreover, cutting factors governing the effectiveness of acoustic emission signal parameters are hinted. Among these, the cutting speed and feed rate seem to have the most noticeable effects on the variation of time–frequency domain acoustic emission signal information, respectively. The outcomes of this work, along with recently completed works in the time domain, can be integrated into advanced classification and artificial intelligence approaches for numerous applications, including real-time machining process monitoring.

The valve is one of the important parts of the reciprocating compressor, which directly affects the thermodynamic process and reliability of the compressor. In this paper, acoustic emission (AE) technology is used to predict the dynamic characteristics of valves. The AE signal of the compressor valve is analyzed based on the deep learning method, and the mapping relation between the AE signal and the dynamic characteristics of the valve is obtained. The results show that the prediction accuracy of the models trained by Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) artificial neural network and Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is 97% and 95%, respectively, which can accurately predict the dynamic characteristics of the valve. Although the prediction results of CNN are slightly lower than that of LSTM network, the calculation speed of CNN is relatively faster.

An electrical discharge is a phenomenon of ionization of an insulating material. Ionization can occur when the stress applied to the insulating material begins to close to the maximum value of stress can be restrained. In this study, a high voltage was given on a point-plane electrode that would produce ionization (discharge) on the gap of the electrode. The point-plane electrode was placed in an iron tank containing oil insulation. The distance of a gap between the electrodes varies from 2 mm to 4 mm. Then, the signal from the occurrence of electrical discharge was capture using an acoustic emission (AE) sensor placed on the outside of the tank wall. The detected acoustic emission signal was amplified with a 40 dB amplifier, so the signal would be easier to analyze. At the other condition, a solid layer of insulation with a thickness of 4 mm would also be placed on the gap the electrode. The result of the signal analysis showed small differences in the intensity of the detected AE signal at all the distance of electrode gaps. The main frequency component of the detected AE signal at all electrode gaps was several hundred kilohertz.

The paper investigates the features of deformation and fracture of steels obtained using the technology of 3D printing by electric arc surfacing based on the registration of the acoustic emission signal. With a decrease in the test temperature of 07Cr25Ni13 steel, a decrease in the work expended in stretching the specimen is observed, both at the stage of elastic deformation and at the stage of strain hardening. It was found that the most informative characteristic parameters of the AE signal include: the pulse count rate N, the total count NΣ, and the AE signal entropy. With a decrease in the test temperature, there is a significant increase in the intensity of the AE signal, the total number of pulses at all stages of deformation and destruction of steel. The obtained regularities of changes in the characteristic parameters of the AE signal can be used as diagnostic features, both in assessing the stage of deformation and destruction of the material, and the structural state of the material. Fractographic studies have shown a significant decrease in the tough component of 08Mn2Si steel with a decrease in the test temperature. The fracture mechanisms of 07Cr25Ni13 steel change insignificantly with decreasing temperature, however, a significant decrease in the ductility of the metal is observed, as evidenced by a decrease in the size of ductile fracture cups.

The application of acoustic emission signal analysis for characterization of sheet metal forming operations is discussed in this paper. Two particular sheet metal forming operations are examined: punch stretching and deep drawing. The acoustic emission signal characteristics, including the energy content, the spectral properties, and time series behaviors, as functions of the process state, are experimentally studied. Using plastic work analysis, an analytical relationship between acoustic emission energy rate and punch stretching parameters (punch feed rate, workpiece thickness, punch size, holder diameter, amount of plastic deformation, and workpiece material properties) is developed and supporting experimental results presented. During the forming processes, acoustic emission signal features show strong correlations with punch/workpiece contact, yielding, deformation, flange wrinkling, necking and fracture. Therefore, acoustic emission can be effectively used for in-process monitoring of sheet metal forming operations.
