Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Non-Destructive Testing
  • Signal Processing

Background:

  • Lead Zirconate Titanate (PZT) is crucial for ultrasound devices but prone to performance-degrading micro-defects.
  • Existing Non-Destructive Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) methods face challenges with impedance mismatch and sub-optimal signal processing for non-stationary signals.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an accurate and economical method for identifying, locating, and quantifying micro-defects in PZT sensors.
  • To overcome limitations of traditional ultrasound SHM techniques for non-stationary signals.

Main Methods:

  • Implementation of a point contact excitation and detection method for ultrasonic wave interaction analysis.
  • Application of Haar Discrete Wavelet Transformation (DWT) for processing non-stationary time series data from the coulomb coupling setup.

Main Results:

  • Successful distinction of micro-defects with diameters as small as 100 μm in PZT sensors.
  • Improved accuracy in defect detection compared to traditional single-domain signal processing methods.

Conclusions:

  • The developed point contact ultrasound SHM method with Haar DWT is effective for detecting micro-defects in PZT.
  • This technique offers a promising solution for enhancing the reliability and performance of PZT-based devices.
