Abstract:Acoustic Emission is a very powerful tool for health monitoring of structures and
mechanical components, especially due to its sensitivity, which is very useful at the early stages of
damage evolution. Evaluation of its potential on rotating structures such as gearboxes, is studied in
the present paper. A new concept of transducer mounting is realized in a single stage in-house built
gearbox. The acoustic emission signature of the healthy gears is acquired. Then artificial defects are
seeded and the acquisitio… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
