厚壁管道周向超声导波缺陷检测研究

厚壁管道在特种承压设备领域中广泛使用,常规无损检测技术难以实现其快速有效地检测。本文采用数值模拟与实验相结合来研究周向导波快速检测厚壁管道的方法。首先,利用有限差分软件研究了不同角度激励下外径269mm、壁厚32mm的厚壁管道中周向导波的传播特性,优化了探头激励角度范围;然后分别制作了55°和45°的斜楔,并搭建了实验系统,研究了周向导波与厚壁管道壁厚方向不同位置缺陷的相互作用规律。研究结果表明,周向导波适用于厚壁管道快速检测。检测时需选择角度适中的探头。激发角度过小时,厚壁管中形成的周向导波模式较多,使得波包宽度较大,影响检测分辨率;而角度过大时,会使得盲区增大,导致靠近内壁区域缺陷漏检。本文的研究结论为厚壁管道缺陷周向导波的实际检测应用提供了指导。

注浆锚杆中扭转导波的传播特性

理论研究了扭转导波在注浆锚杆中的传播特性。首先建立了注浆锚杆两层复合结构中的扭转导波的频散方程,之后数值计算得到了扭转导波的能量速度、衰减频散曲线及导波在注浆锚杆中的位移分布情况。结果表明,(1)500kHz范围内,注浆锚杆中具有三种扭转导波模态T(0,1)~T(0,3),三种模态均具有频散性。随着频率逐渐增大,导波的能量速度逐渐增大,而衰减值逐渐减小。(2)50kHz和200kHz的T(0,1)模态扭转导波在锚杆体内的周向位移值较大,所以对锚杆体表面的轴向缺陷敏感,而导波在锚杆与注浆体接触面上的周向位移较大,从锚杆泄漏至注浆体中的能量较大,导波衰减较严重。(3)频率高于100kHz,锚杆直径的变化对T(0,1)模态的能量速度几乎无影响,而频率低于100kHz,注浆体弹性模量越大,T(0,1)模态的能量速度越小。

Damage detection based on the propagation of longitudinal guided wave in a bimetal composite pipe

This paper investigates the damage detection based on the propagation of guided wave in bimetal composite pipes, which can identify damage locations in both axial and circumferential directions. The feasibility of the method is showed by numerical simulations using FEM code ANSYS. Mode analysis is used to evaluate the guided wave mode and its structure, which can provide the basis of the mode selection in measurements scheme. The guided wave propagation in a damaged pipe is computed by transient analysis. 16 nodes around the pipe wall, as probes, are used to record the guided wave signal. When Pseudo Margenau—Hill distribution (PMHD) for each signal is carried out, three types of modes could be found, which are led mode, excited mode and lag mode in sequences. Based on the results, the arrival time of the excited mode could be used to locate damage in axial direction, and the energy distribution around the pipe of lag mode is consistent with the damage in circumferential direction. The simulation illustrated the possibility of detecting damage location in both axial and circumferential directions based on longitudinal ultrasonic guided waves only.     

功能梯度圆柱板中的周向衰逝导波

与传播波模态不同,衰逝波模态波数为纯虚数或复数,它们随传播距离呈指数或阻尼式衰减。复数根描述的衰逝波对结构缺陷形状和尺寸的导波检测具有重要作用,但其求解却是非常困难的,通常要借助于各种迭代技术。本文提出一种计算求解衰逝波问题的改进的Legendre正交多项式方法,该方法可将复杂的变系数微分方程组计算转换为特征值求解问题,无需迭代便能计算得到包含实波数域、虚波数域和复波数域的完整的频散曲线。通过具体算例验证了提出方法的正确性。应用提出方法计算了不同梯度圆柱板中的衰逝导波,绘制了三维频散曲线,研究了不同径厚比和梯度场对衰逝导波频散的影响,分析了衰逝导波的位移和应力分布,讨论了衰逝导波的传播特性。     

Propagation of guided waves in pressure vessel

Pressure vessels usually operate under extremes of high/low temperatures and high pressures. Defect, such as crack and corrosion, can result in leakage or rupture failures, even catastrophic incidents. Guided wave-based structural health monitoring (SHM) technology is one of the most prominent options in non-destructive evaluation and testing (NDE/NDT) techniques. Propagation of guided waves in a typical pressure vessel is systematically investigated in this study for the application of guided wave-based SHM. Shape of the pressure vessel is a cylinder with two end caps. Because of geometric similarity, theory of guided wave propagation in the cylinderical structure is analyzed to study dispersive features of guided waves in the pressure vessel. Dispersion curves of three different types of guided wave modes, viz. the longitudinal, torsional and flexural modes, are calculated using theoretical method. Based on the analyses and experimental wave signals, central frequency and wave parameters of incident wave are optimized. Effect of contained liquid on propagation of guided waves, especially the L(0, 2) mode, in the pressure vessel is further investigated to minimize energy leakage of the wave to the contained liquid. The analytical method, finite element analysis (FEA) and experiments are applied to study propagation characteristics of guided waves in the pressure vessel, so as to demonstrate the feasibility of guided wave-based non-destructive evaluation and testing (NDE/NDT) for such kind of complex structures.     

GUIDED CIRCUMFERENTIAL WAVES IN DOUBLE-WALLED CARBON NANOTUBES

A model of guided circumferential waves propagating in double-walled carbon nan- otubes is built by the theory of wave propagation in continuum mechanics,while the van der Waals force between the inner and outer nanotube has been taken into account in the model.The dispersion curves of the guided circumferential wave propagation are studied,and some dispersion characteristics are illustrated by comparing with those of single-walled carbon nanotubes.It is found that in double-walled carbon nanotubes,the guided circumferential waves will propagate in more dispersive ways.More interactions between neighboring wave modes may take place.In particular,it has been found that a couple of wave modes may disappear at a certain frequency and that,while a couple of wave modes disappear,another new couple of wave modes are excited at the same wave number.     

Transient thermoelastic waves in an anisotropic hollow cylinder due to localized heating

This paper presents a theoretical study of transient ultrasonic guided waves generated by concentrated heating of the outer surface of an infinite anisotropic hollow circular cylinder. Generalized thermoelastic theory proposed by Lord and Shulman is adopted to model the dynamic thermoelastic behavior of the cylinder. The concentrated heat source model used is to represent heating due to a pulsed laser beam, which is focused on the outer surface of the cylinder. A semi-analytical finite element (SAFE) method is employed to evaluate guided wave modes in the cylinder. Using integral transform techniques, the modal wave forms are obtained in frequency and wave number domains. Time histories of the propagating modes are then calculated by applying inverse Fourier transformation in the time domain. Numerical results showing the dispersion curves for the group velocities of the propagating modes and transient radial displacements are presented. For this purpose it is assumed that the cylinder is made of transversely isotropic silicon nitride (Si₃N₄). Attention is focused on the propagation characteristics of longitudinal and flexural modes separately.     

Thermal Fatigue Damage Assessment in an Isotropic Pipe Using Nonlinear Ultrasonic Guided Waves

The use of nonlinear ultrasonic waves has been accepted as a potential technique to characterize the state of material micro-structure in solids. The typical nonlinear phenomenon is generation of second harmonics. Second harmonic generation of ultrasonic waves propagation has been vigorously studied for tracking material micro-damages in unbounded media and plate-like waveguides. However, there are few studies of launching second harmonic guided wave propagation in tube-like structures. Considering that second harmonics could provide useful information sensitive for material degradation condition, this research aims at developing a procedure for detecting second harmonics of ultrasonic guided wave in an isotropic pipe. The second harmonics generation of guided wave propagation in an isotropic and stress-free elastic pipe is investigated. Flexible polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) comb transducers are used to measure fundamental wave and second harmonic one. Experimental results show that nonlinear parameters increase monotonically with propagation distance. This work experimentally verifies that the second harmonics of guided waves in pipe have the cumulative effect with propagation distance. The proposed procedure is applied to assessing thermal fatigue damage indicated by nonlinearity in an aluminum pipe. The experimental observation verifies that nonlinear guided waves can be used to assess damage levels in early thermal fatigue state by correlating them with the acoustic nonlinearity.
