Title:
構造上の損傷の検出用の方法と装置
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3676780
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
The entire contents of these applications are incorporated herein by reference. A method and apparatus for detecting and monitoring fractures in a structure by monitoring acoustic energy transmitted within the structure by receiving continuously over a period of time electrical signals from a plurality of acoustic tranducers carried by the structure in a pulse processor to form data bursts from pulses in the signals and deriving, for each of a plurality of the data bursts, delta-t values representing the differences between burst arrival times at each sensor, the delta-t values forming a delta-t pattern, and generating a damage indication signal when the delta-t pattern is repeated to a predetermined degree.
