Lamb Wave-Based Structural Health Monitoring on Composite Bolted Joints under Tensile Load
نویسندگان
چکیده
Online and offline monitoring of composite bolted joints under tensile load were investigated using piezoelectric transducers. The relationships between Lamb wave signals, pre-tightening force, the applied tensile load, as well as the failure modes were investigated. Results indicated that S0/A0 wave amplitudes decrease with the increasing of load. Relationships between damage features and S0/A0 mode were built based on the finite element (FE) simulation and experimental results. The possibility of application of Lamb wave-based structure health monitoring in bolted joint-like composite structures was thus achieved.

Time reversal Health monitoring of a composite structure using Lamb waves
Time reversal active sensing using Lamb waves is investigated for health monitoring of a composite structure. In the present work experiments were conducted on a glass/epoxy composite plates to study the time reversal behavior of A0 and S0 Lamb wave modes. PZT wafer sensors were surface bonded to the structure for generation and reception of the Lamb wave modes. Time reversal experiments were f...
متن کاملExperimental characterisation of Lamb wave propagation through thermoplastic composite ultrasonic welds
Ultrasonic welding is a very promising technique for joining thermoplastic composite (TpC) components in aircraft primary structures [1, 2]. The potential introduction of new lightweight structures in civil aviation has been driving the change towards condition-based maintenance (CBM) as an alternative to the regular inspection interval approach [3]. In turn, CBM has been pushing forward the de...

BOG (Boil off Gas) compressor deals with the gas evaporated from the LNG storage tank. Its working temperature is lower than-120℃. There are two types of starting process for BOG compressor: Direct Starting and No-load Starting. During the starting process, the temperature on cylinder will change rapidly and result in additional thermal stress to some parts on the cylinder, especially to the bo...

Platelike structures, made of composites, are being increasingly used for fabricating aircraft wings and other aircraft substructures. Continuous monitoring of the health of these structures would aid the reliable operation of aircrafts. This paper considers the use of a Lamb wave based structural health monitoring SHM system to identify and locate defects in large multilayered composite plates...
متن کاملLamb Wave Interaction with Adhesively Bonded Stiffeners and Disbonds Using 3D Vibrometry
There are many advantages to adhesively bonding stiffeners onto aircraft structures rather than using traditional mechanical fastening methods. However there is a lack of confidence of the structural integrity of adhesively bonded joints over time. Acousto-ultrasonic Lamb waves have shown great potential in structural health monitoring applications in both metallic and composite structures. Thi...
