Prediction technology on the source location of acoustic emission signal

This study deals with the source location method of defect which can be occurred in structure. The existing methods was very difficult to be applied to predict it because of using very complex numerical formula. The triangulation method which was proposed in his study can predict the source location predicted easily with small amount of data. Wave arrival time data can be directly converted into source-sensor distance is known. For this purpose, the propagation velocity was measured by Rayleigh wave, and the propagation behavior was analyzed. For the consideration of jointed part in structure, the source location method was applied to the welded workpiece. The signal propagation velocity was measured in welding part for the purpose of application to the part and the revised algorithm of source location was proposed.
