A Novel Acoustic Emission Fiber Optic Sensor Based on a Single Mode Optical Fiber Coupler

This paper reports, for the first time, on the use of a fused-taper single mode optical fiber coupler as a sensing element for the detection of acoustic emission (AE) and ultrasound. When an acoustic wave impinges on the mode-coupling region of a coupler, the coupling coefficient is modulated via the photo-elastic effect. Therefore, the transfer function of the coupler is modulated by an acoustic wave. The sensitivity of the sensor at 140 kHz was approximately 5.2 mV/Pa and the noise floor was 1 Pa. The bandwidth of the sensor was up to several hundred kHz. This AE sensor exhibits significant advantage compared with interferometer-based AE sensors.     

Beamforming array techniques for acoustic emission monitoring of large concrete structures

This paper introduces a novel method of acoustic emission (AE) analysis which is particularly suited for field applications on large plate-like reinforced concrete structures, such as walls and bridge decks. Similar to phased-array signal processing techniques developed for other non-destructive evaluation methods, this technique adapts beamforming tools developed for passive sonar and seismological applications for use in AE source localization and signal discrimination analyses. Instead of relying on the relatively weak P-wave, this method uses the energy-rich Rayleigh wave and requires only a small array of 4–8 sensors. Tests on an in-service reinforced concrete structure demonstrate that the azimuth of an artificial AE source can be determined via this method for sources located up to 3.8 m from the sensor array, even when the P-wave is undetectable. The beamforming array geometry also allows additional signal processing tools to be implemented, such as the VESPA process (VElocity SPectral Analysis), whereby the arrivals of different wave phases are identified by their apparent velocity of propagation. Beamforming AE can reduce sampling rate and time synchronization requirements between spatially distant sensors which in turn facilitates the use of wireless sensor networks for this application.     

Design and operation of an evanescent optical fiber sensor

Design and operation of an optical fiber sensor based on the intensity modulation is reported in this article. Two distinct mechanisms are considered for the optical power loss and the sensor operation is explained in terms of these effects. The dominant loss mechanism is found to be the evanescent loss and based on this phenomenon the optical fiber sensor is designed. Performance of this sensor is tested as a liquid level sensor for water and the experimental results are reported. The dry and wet signals for this probe are measured for a series of measurements and important factors concerning the design and operation of sensor are described. The precision of measured values, reproducibility of the results, and the stability of sensing operation as a function of time are reported. Variation of the output reading of the sensor system for different launching power is also investigated. The output signal of an optical fiber sensor in general is nonlinear, but both the signal difference (dry minus wet) and diff/dry signal ratio for the reported sensor show linear dependence with the launching power at intensities below threshold. The reported results are promising and verify the successful operation of such a device as an on/off level switch and also as a liquid level sensor.
