Estimation of clamping force in high-tension bolts through ultrasonic velocity measurement

The estimation of clamping force has been regarded as the main issue in the maintenance of high-tension bolts. This paper proposes a method which uses the dependency of ultrasonic velocity on stress based on the nonlinear elastic effect. The variation of ultrasonic velocity in the range of actual stress acting in the bolt is very small so that the precise measurement of ultrasonic velocity is needed. In this paper, we adopt a method to measure ultrasonic velocity, where the TOF (time of flight) of a tone-burst ultrasonic wave is precisely measured by using the phase detection technique. In order to verify the usefulness of the proposed method, two kinds of experiments are carried out. The first one measures ultrasonic velocity when the bolt is stressed by the tension tester, and from this, the exact axial force acting in the bolt can be determined. The results show good agreement with the expected linear relationship between ultrasonic velocity and axial stress. The second experiment measures ultrasonic velocity when the bolt is stressed by the torque wrench. The results show that ultrasonic velocity decreased as the torque increased, which is identical to the theoretically expected tendency. From these results, it can be said that the proposed method is adequate in evaluating clamping force in high-tension bolts.     

Bolt axial stress measurement based on a mode-converted ultrasound method using an electromagnetic acoustic transducer

A method is proposed to measure the stress on a tightened bolt using an electromagnetic acoustic transducer (EMAT). A shear wave is generated by the EMAT, and a longitudinal wave is obtained from the reflection of the shear wave due to the mode conversion. The ray paths of the longitudinal and the shear wave are analyzed, and the relationship between the bolt axial stress and the ratio of time of flight between two mode waves is then formulated. Based on the above outcomes, an EMAT is developed to measure the bolt axial stress without loosening the bolt, which is required in the conventional EMAT test method. The experimental results from the measurement of the bolt tension show that the shear and the mode-converted longitudinal waves can be received successfully, and the ratio of the times of flight of the shear and the mode-converted longitudinal waves is linearly proportional to the bolt axial tension. The non-contact characteristic of EMAT eliminates the effect of the couplant and also makes the measurement more convenient than the measurement performed using the piezoelectric transducer. This method provides a promising way to measure the stress on tightened bolts.

ESTIMATION OF 3D FIELD QUANTITIES AND ENERGY FLUX ASSOCIATED WITH ELASTIC WAVES IN A BAR

A method to estimate dispersion relations and warping associated with elastic wave propagation in a bar is presented. The method is based on Hamilton's principle. It is shown how the theoretical model together with strain measurements can be used to evaluate three dimensional (3D) field quantities like displacements and stresses at an arbitrary position in the bar, as well as energy flux through an arbitrary cross-section of the bar. It is also shown how redundant measurements can be used to increase the accuracy. The method is general and can be applied to any mode of wave propagation, isotropic or anisotropic linearly elastic material, and any cross-sectional geometry. Here, it is applied to longitudinal waves in a split Hopkinson pressure bar with linear elastic isotropic material behaviour and square cross-section. In particular, axial displacement, axial stress and energy flux are evaluated at a free end of the bar in order to test the method. The method is also used to estimate the Poisson ratio of the bar material, by measuring axial and transverse strains at the same axial position.     

Explicit model for ultrasonic attenuation in equiaxial hexagonal polycrystalline materials

Attenuation coefficients for longitudinal and transverse ultrasonic waves are obtained in explicit form for untextured hexagonal polycrystalline materials. The equations obtained are easy to use for interpretation and evaluation of experimental results for ultrasonic characterization of microstructures. The attenuation coefficients are separated into two terms, corresponding to incident wave scattering into longitudinal and transverse waves. It is shown that the general expressions for attenuation coefficients in the long wavelength (Rayleigh) and short wavelength (stochastic) regimes transit to the known classical asymptotics. Simple equations to estimate the frequency range of the transition from the Rayleigh to stochastic regimes are also given. An example of experimental measurements in Ti alloy is provided to illustrate application of the model; the results show reasonable agreement between the experiment and the model with no adjustable parameters.
