Abstract

A nonlinear ultrasonic test is proposed for material damage evaluation using thermal modulation. Temperature change excites and modulates nonlinear behavior of ultrasonic waves in concrete. Coda wave interferometry was used to analyze the relative velocity change of ultrasonic wave with temperature variations. On concrete samples with different levels of thermal damage, experimental results indicate that the samples with a higher damage level demonstrated higher sensitivity to temperature variations. In addition, a slow dynamics nonlinear behavior was observed. When the temperature changed and then remained constant, the wave velocity gradually approached to its equilibrium value.

Determination of acoustic nonlinearity parameters using thermal modulation of ultrasonic waves

Journal Article Sun, Hongbin ; Zhu, Jinying - Applied Physics Letters

This study presents a test method and its theoretical framework to determine the acoustic nonlinearity parameters (α, β, δ) of material using thermal modulation of ultrasonic waves. Temperature change-induced thermal strain excites the nonlinear response of the material and modulates the ultrasonic wave propagating in it. Experimental results showed a strong correlation between the relative wave velocity change and the temperature change. With a quadratic polynomial model, the acoustic nonlinearity parameters were obtained from the polynomial coefficients by curve fitting the experimental data. Their effects on thermal-induced velocity change were discussed. The parameters α, β, and δ govern the hysteretic gap, average slope, and curvaturemore »« less

Nondestructive Damage Detection of Concrete With Alkali-Silica Reactions Using Coda Wave and Anomaly Detection

Journal Article Shin, Taeyong ; Sun, Hongbin ; Zhu, Jinying ; ... - IEEE Sensors Journal

An anomaly detection model for early damage detection for concrete structures undergoing alkali-silica reaction (ASR) is presented. It is difficult to detect ASR initiation and early damage without a reference expansion measurement. Coda waves, or the multiply scattered portion of ultrasonic waves, have been found to be indicative of small changes in complex material such as concrete. The relationship between concrete damage and relative velocity change and decorrelation of coda waves has been studied, but a generalized model which detects when damage occurs in a concrete structure is still lacking. The presented method uses features extracted from coda waves tomore »« less

Measurement of third-order elastic constants using thermal modulation of ultrasonic waves

Journal Article Zhong, Bibo ; Zhu, Jinying - Applied Physics Letters

Third-order elastic constants (TOEC) play an important role in nonlinear material characterization, but measurements of TOEC are laborious with large error margins. This Letter presents the equations of wave velocity changes caused by homogeneous temperature variation and uniaxial stress in isotropic media and the expression of TOEC in terms of thermally induced velocity change and thermal strain. TOEC of an aluminum sample were experimentally determined by measuring ultrasonic wave velocity changes in the uniaxial loading test and the thermal modulation test. Experimental results showed good agreement between the two test methods. Owing to the simple test setup and high measurementmore »« less

Long-term ultrasonic monitoring of concrete affected by alkali-silica reaction

Journal Article Sun, Hongbin ; Tang, Yalei ; Malone, Clayton ; ... - Structural Health Monitoring

This article presents continuous monitoring results of alkali-silica reaction (ASR) development in concrete specimens for over 400 days using ultrasonic testing and expansion measurements. Eight concrete specimens with nonreactive aggregate (Control), reactive coarse aggregate, and reactive fine aggregates were cast with two reinforced confinement conditions. The specimens were conditioned in an environmental chamber with high temperature and humidity (38°C and 90% relative humidity) to accelerate the ASR development. A multichannel ultrasonic monitoring system was developed to collect ultrasonic signals automatically, and the expansions in three directions were measured periodically. Results showed that the relative velocity change could detect the ASR initiationmore »« less

Online Monitoring System for Concrete Structures Affected by Alkali-Silica Reaction

Technical Report Zhu, Jinying ; Sun, Hongbin ; Malone, Clayton ; ...

This report presents a comprehensive study of developing ultrasonic wave and acoustic emission (AE) techniques for long-term monitoring of alkali-silica reaction (ASR) development in concrete. Small, medium, and full-scale concrete specimens were cast, conditioned, and monitored for various periods, from at least one year to 2.4 years. The reactive concrete specimens contain coarse or fine reactive aggregates to study the effects of different types of reactive aggregates. Confinements were also designed to simulate the 2-dimensional confinement effects of reinforcement in the shield building of nuclear power plants. The concrete specimens were stored in a environmental chamber with high humidity andmore »« less
