Method of Reference Signals Creating in Non-Destructive Testing Based on Low-Speed Impact

Abstract

The article describes the approach to the formation of a simulation model of information signals, which are typical for objects with different types of defects. The dispersive analysis of the signal spectrum components in the bases of the discrete Hartley transform and the discrete cosine transform is carried out. The analysis of the form of the reconstructed information signal is carried out depending on the number of coefficients of the spectral alignment in Hartley bases and cosine functions. The basis of orthogonal functions of a discrete argument is obtained, which can be used for the spectral transformation of information signals of a flaw detector. A method of simulation of information signals has been developed and experimentally investigated, which allows taking into account the deterministic and random components of the characteristics of real information signals.

Novel Small-Aperture Transducers Based on Magnetostrictive Effect for Diagnostic Systems

“…In particular, information on the physicomechanical properties of metals and alloys, the nature of phase transitions, and the magnitude of interatomic interaction forces can be obtained using modern diagnostic systems, including based on acoustic methods [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. The high sensitivity of ultrasonic methods [10] to inhomogeneities of the medium and variations in its physicomechanical properties led to the creation and development of ultrasonic diagnostic methods, which makes it possible to study materials that are "opaque" for other methods.…”

A Method of Comparative Evaluation of the Drive Units of Two Bucket Elevators—A Case Study

“…When it comes to evaluating the usefulness of diagnostic parameters, two approaches can be distinguished [17]. The first one consists in selecting a minimum number of parameters which provide useful information, while the second approach combines more parameters which on their own can be less meaningful.…”
