Abstract ––Acoustic-emission events in core samples are detected from total wave energy by time reversal mirror (TRM) inversion using equations of the elastodynamic theory in polar coordinates. The acoustic emission parameters used in the modeling correspond to laboratory testing data on core samples. The simulation results for digital core have implications for the configuration of multichannel data acquisition, including the optimal number of receivers or channels and the placement of sensors. Testing with different numbers of receivers/channels and at different frequencies shows that the method can provide satisfactory resolution even at a relatively low frequency.

An approach to localizing the events of acoustic emission by the time reversal method based on the analysis of the total energy of the wave process is proposed. Based on the results of numerical modeling, the resolution of the method was investigated depending on the dominant frequency of acoustic emission signals and the number of recording channels. It was shown that even for frequencies of the order of 250–500 kHz, it is possible to localize acoustic emission events on samples of standard size with a diameter of 30 mm.событий акустической эмиссии в образцах керна

AbstractLinear chirp spread spectrum technique is widely used in underwater acoustic communication because of their resilience to high multipath and Doppler shift. Linear frequency modulated signal requires a high spreading factor to nearly reach orthogonality between two pairs of signals. On the other hand, nonlinear chirp spread spectrum signals can provide orthogonality at a low spreading factor. As a result, it improves spectral efficiency and is more insensitive to Doppler spread than the linear counterpart. To achieve a higher data rate, we propose two variants (half cycle sine and full cycle sine) of the M-ary nonlinear sine chirp spread spectrum technique based on virtual time-reversal mirror (VTRM). The proposed scheme uses different frequency bands to transmit chirp, and VTRM is used to improve the bit error rate due to high multipath. Its superior Doppler sensitivity makes it suitable for underwater acoustic communication. Furthermore, the proposed method uses a simple, low-power bank of matched filters; thus, it reduces the overall system complexity. Simulations are performed in different underwater acoustic channels to verify the robustness of the proposed scheme.

Abstract High efficiency and good section quality are two main objectives of metal bar cropping. A suitable control method can help to achieve both goals. An investigation of the control method of low-cycle fatigue cropping (LCFC) based on the acoustic emission (AE) technique has been proposed in this study. Ring-down counts and kurtosis are used to monitor the whole process of LCFC. The results showed that kurtosis is more suitable for monitoring the LCFC process and as a critical parameter to optimize the control method than ring-down counts in the noisy factory environment.Moreover, three types of materials are studied in this experiment; by combine with the AE results, macroscopic images and microscopic images of sections, characteristics of various LCFC stages are obtained. The results also indicated reduce the area of the transient fracture zone is the key to improve the section quality. Reducing the load frequency before the unstable crack propagation stage will beneficial to realize the goals. Based on the evaluation of kurtosis, an optimized control method is presented, and two control parameters: transient time T and the critical value of the slope of kurtosis C are determined. For 16Mn, 1045 and Al 6061, the T is 5s, 10s, and 1s, respectively. For 16Mn, 1045, and Al 6061, the C is 100, 300, and 0, respectively. Two parameters, h and S, are used to evaluate the section quality and four control strategies are compared. The results indicate the optimal control methods can improve the section quality effectively. The influence trend of reducing loading frequency is investigated by further comparison. It can be seen as the frequency decreases, the efficiency of the section quality improving decreases. In order to realize the optimal results, different control strategies are adopted for different materials. Strategy 1 (high frequency is 20Hz,high frequency thought the whole process), strategy 2 (high frequency is 20Hz,low frequency is 8.33Hz), and strategy 3 (high frequency is 20Hz,low frequency is 6.67Hz) is suitable for Al 6061, 1045, and 16Mn, respectively.

Due to the significant multipath and Doppler effects in the underwater acoustic (UWA) channel, the quality of the received signal is degraded, which seriously affects the performance of UWA communication. The paper proposes a time reversal UWA communication method combined with a symbol-based Doppler compensation (SBDC) technique to solve those problems. A single element time reversal mirror (TRM) is used to realize channel equalization and mitigate the inter-symbol interference (ISI) resulting from multipath propagation. The SBDC technique is subsequently used to compensate Doppler effects in the received signal, thereby reducing the bit error rate (BER) and improving the communication performance. In order to verify the performance of the proposed communication method, some simulations with real sounding channels were performed. Moreover, a field UWA communication experiment was conducted in the Songhua River (Harbin, China). The UWA communication experiment achieves nearly error-free performance with a communication rate of 100 bit/s in the bandwidth of 2 kHz. The results of the experiment demonstrate the feasibility and robustness of the proposed UWA communication method.
