摘要:
针对工业设备中大型薄壁结构件的腐蚀检测问题，提出一种基于频谱相干性分析的高阶Lamb波腐蚀损伤检测方法. 首先，利用略高于截止频率的A1模态Lamb波对含腐蚀薄壁结构的不同位置进行激励，并采集各传播路径上的响应信号；随后，采用频散补偿技术消除信号中的频散效果，通过合适的窗函数对信号中的A1模态直达波包进行分离提取，建立其与激励信号的频谱差异系数 (frequency spectrum difference coefficient, FSDC)，通过有限元仿真研究该指标对不同宽度、深度腐蚀损伤的敏感性；最后，在含腐蚀铝板上进行实验验证，结合各路径FSDC指标与概率成像算法，对检测区域的腐蚀损伤进行定位与成像. 结果表明：FSDC值在健康状态下为0，而在不同宽度、深度的腐蚀影响下FSDC在0～1；相较于传统层析成像方法，所提出方法具有更好的检测灵敏度和抗干扰能力.
Abstract:In view of the corrosion detection of large thin-walled structural parts in industrial equipment, a corrosion detection method based on spectral coherence analysis using high-order Lamb waves was proposed. Firstly, the A1 mode Lamb wave with a frequency slightly higher than the cutoff frequency was adopted and transmitted at different positions on the corroded thin-walled structure, and the response signal of each propagation path was collected; then, the dispersion compensation technique was used to eliminate the dispersion effect in the signal, so the direct wave packet of A1 mode could be separated and extracted from the signal using a suitable window function. On this basis, the frequency spectrum difference coefficient (FSDC) of the extracted wave packet and the excitation signal was established as an index, which was subsequently discussed in terms of its sensitivity to corrosion defects of different widths and depths with the help of finite element simulation; finally, an experimental validation was conducted on a corroded aluminum plate, where the FSDC index of each path was combined with the probability imaging algorithm to locate and visualize the corrosion defect in the detection area. Results show that the FSDC value keeps zero for an intact path and stays between 0 and 1 for corrosions of different widths and depths. Compared with the traditional tomography method, the proposed method has better detection sensitivity and anti-interference ability.
