Problems solved by technology

However, the current signal time-reversal focusing methods are all implemented under relatively complex equipment conditions, which have high requirements for sensor / actuator arrays, signal generators, data acquisition equipment, etc., which obviously do not meet the requirements of online structural damage monitoring. At the same time, in the active Lamb wave damage monitoring of plate structures, the Lamb wave propagation is non-directional, and each sensor is receiving the time-reversed signal excited by each sensor while receiving the damage-focused enhanced scattering signal. will stack together indistinguishable
Therefore, in active Lamb wave structural health monitoring technology, it is difficult to obtain focusing-enhanced damage scattering signals using conventional equipment and methods, and new processing methods and technologies must be used to focus and collect damage scattering signals

Description

1. Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for active Lamb wave damage monitoring of plate engineering structures, in particular to a method for realizing time-reversal focusing enhancement of active Lamb wave structure damage monitoring signals under the condition of conventional general-purpose equipment, thereby realizing engineering structure damage monitoring. 2. Background technology [0002] With the continuous improvement of structural safety and reliability requirements, the on-line monitoring and diagnosis of structural damage has attracted more and more attention. In order to prevent disasters or losses caused by structural damage, effective monitoring of structures is necessary. [0003] The on-line monitoring of structural damage requires that the relevant signal generation and acquisition equipment should be relatively simple, and the monitoring must have high real-time and accuracy. The damage monitoring of plate structures generally adopts th...
