Abstract To The article provides information on the results of studying the parameters of acoustic emission signals during the destruction of the liner material and micro-plastic of the power shell of a metal-composite high-pressure cylinder. B-200 within the framework of a complex of studies to create an acoustic-emission portrait of metal-composite high-pressure cylinders. It was found that the most informative parameter when carrying out technical diagnostics of a liner is the signal amplitude recorded in the private range of 60-80 kHz, and a sign of microplastic rupture is the emission of acoustic emission signals reaching 82 dB.

The results of unique experimental studies of the strength and service life of a metal-composite high-pressure tank are presented. The goal of the study is to analyze the fracture mechanisms and evaluate the strength characteristics of the structure. The methodology included tests of full-scale samples of the tank for durability under short-term static, long-term static and cyclic loading with internal pneumatic pressure. Generalized test results and data of visual measurements, instrumental and acoustic-emission control of deformation processes, accumulation of damages and destruction of full-scale tank samples are presented. Analysis of the strength and stiffness of the structure exposed to internal pneumatic pressure is presented. The types of limiting states of the tanks have been established experimentally. Change in the stress-strain state of the tank under cyclic and prolonged static loading is considered. Specific features of the mechanisms of destruction of a metal-composite tank are determined taking into account the role of strain of the metal liner. The calculated and experimental estimates of the energy potential of destruction and the size of the area affected upon destruction of the tank are presented. Analysis of test results showed that the tank has high strength and resource characteristics that meet the requirements of the design documentation. The results of the experiments are in good agreement with the results of numerical calculations and analysis of the stress-strain state and mechanisms of destruction of the metal-composite tank.

Leak detection is one of the most important problems in the oil and gas pipelines. Where it can lead to financial losses, severe human and environmental impacts. Acoustic emission test is a new technique for leak detection. Leakage in high pressure pipes creates stress waves resulting from localized loss of energy. Stress waves are transmitted through the pipe wall which will be recorded by using acoustic sensor or accelerometer installed on the pipe wall. Knowledge of how the pipe wall vibrates by acoustic emission resulting from leakage is a key parameter for leak detection and location. In this paper, modeling of pipe vibration caused by acoustic emission generated by escaping of fluid has been done. Donnells non linear theory for cylindrical shell is used to deriving of motion equation and simply supported boundary condition is considered. By using Galerkin method, the motion equation has been solved and a system of non linear equations with 6 degrees of freedom is obtained. To solve these equations, ODE tool of MATLAB software and Rung-Kuta numerical method is used and pipe wall radial displacement is obtained. For verification of this theory, acoustic emission test with continues leak source has been done. Vibration of wall pipe was recorded by using acoustic emission sensors. For better analysis, Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) was taken from theoretical and experimental results. By comparing the results, it is found that the range of frequencies which carried the most amount of energy is same which expresses the affectivity of the model.

Abstract This present article evaluates the state of starvation in a journal bearing using acoustic emission (AE) and vibration measurement techniques. A journal bearing requires a constant supply of oil in an adequate amount to develop a hydrodynamic film, thick enough to separate the surfaces and avoid asperity contacts. On a microscopic level, the surface interaction under starved lubrication results in deformation and fracture of asperities. This causes a proportionate increase in AE and vibration. The AE activities resulting from asperities interaction have significant energy in the frequency range of 100–400 kHz with peak frequencies in the range of 224–283 kHz. Further, the peak frequency shifts from the higher to lower side as the asperity interaction transits from the elastic to plastic contact. This information derived from the spectral analysis of AE signals can be used to develop condition monitoring parameters to proactively control the lubrication and prevent bearing failure.
