Area of Science:

  • Engineering
  • Materials Science
  • Non-Destructive Testing

Background:

  • Urgent need for non-destructive testing (NDT) methods for infrastructure and residences to prevent collapse.
  • Desire for remote, non-contact inspection methods with high sensitivity for small cracks and internal damage.
  • Ensuring engineer safety during structural inspections is paramount.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a highly sensitive, remote, non-contact NDT system for infrastructure.
  • To create a millimeter-wave (MM-wave) synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging system.
  • To detect surface cracks as small as 0.1 mm and internal structural defects.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a radar module with high directivity and minimal signal loss.
  • Implemented a single-input, multiple-output (SIMO) synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging system.
  • Conducted performance evaluations, including SNR improvement and penetration depth measurements in concrete.

Main Results:

  • Achieved a 5.4 dB SNR improvement in MM-wave imaging compared to previous systems.
  • Successfully detected 0.1 mm cracks in concrete hidden under paint and tape from 3 meters.
  • Determined the MM-wave attenuation distance in a 3.7 mm concrete slab to be 6.0 mm.

Conclusions:

  • The developed SIMO-SAR system meets the stringent requirements for remote, non-destructive infrastructure inspection.
  • The system demonstrates high sensitivity in detecting small surface cracks and internal defects in various construction materials.
  • This technology enhances safety and reliability in assessing the condition of critical structures.
