Health monitoring of CFRP laminates under cyclic loading via vibro-acoustic modulation based measurements

Erik Willmann et al.

Summary: Estimating the damage state of composites is crucial in understanding the complex damage behavior of CFRP materials. This study investigated the effects of matrix cracks and different damage types on the vibro-acoustic modulation behavior of CFRP specimens under fatigue loading. The results showed that stiffness-reducing inter-fiber fractures and large-scale delaminations can be detected regardless of the laminate layup.

Synthetic generation of vibroacoustic modulation signals for structural health monitoring

Benjamin Boll et al.

Summary: The vibroacoustic modulation (VAM) is a nonlinear ultrasonic testing method that utilizes the modulation of a high-frequency/low-amplitude probe wave with a low-frequency/high-amplitude pumping vibration, resulting in high sensitivities to damages in the structure. A synthetic generation of the VAM signal using probe measurements acquired at different stress levels is proposed, reducing the sensing requirements and decoupling VAM from the need for a constant recurrent frequency and amplitude of the natural vibration. This method opens the possibility of applying VAM to assess the structural health of complex structures.

Physical explanation for vibro-acoustic modulation due to local and global nonlinearities in a structure and its experimental and numerical validation

Lennart Dorendorf et al.

Summary: This article introduces a simple physical explanation of how nonlinearity in a structure causes amplitude modulation and phase modulation in the system response for structural health monitoring (SHM) applications. The explanation is validated through experiments and simulations. It demonstrates the different types of envelope functions observed in the system response depending on the ultrasonic carrier frequency. This understanding is crucial for distinguishing non-damage induced nonlinearity from local damage effects in SHM applications.

Weak adhesion detection-Enhancing the analysis of vibroacoustic modulation by machine learning

Benjamin Boll et al.

Summary: This study utilizes machine learning to analyze and interpret vibroacoustic modulation signals to detect weak bonds in adhesive materials. By introducing ultrasonic signals and low frequency vibration, an artificial neural network is shown to robustly identify various defects in bonded joints and predict residual strengths, demonstrating great potential for non-destructive testing in adhesive joints.

Nonlinear modulation with low-power sensor networks using undersampling

Peter Oppermann et al.

Summary: A new damage identification method is proposed using short-time Fourier transform to derive amplitude and phase modulation, reducing computational effort and memory usage while exhibiting performance and reliability. Undersampling is demonstrated to significantly reduce memory demand and energy consumption without significant loss of accuracy.
