Stability and accuracy of the imaging results are still unmet practical demands for ultrasonic computed tomography(CT)of concrete material.To address these issues,a CT technique based on simulated annealing genetic algorithm(SAGA)is presented in this work.Firstly,a natural weight matrix with clear physical meaning is introduced in the inverse algorithm and then a quadric broadening objective function is formed according to the propagation characteristics of ultrasound in concrete.After that,the simulated annealing(SA)searching is added to speed up the inverse process and to improve the convergence and stability of the algorithm.Finally,the optimal inverse imaging results have been achieved by variable ectopic adaptive genetic algorithm.The numerical simulation experiments have shown that the usage of the correct priori information and the excellent characteristic of SAGA in searching the global minimum value of the function have produced accurate and effective results with stable numerical values.The imaging resolution is improved and the imagining results reflecting the inner defections of the tested objects are more reliable and accurate.
PE管作为燃气运输管道已得到越来越广泛的应用,但PE管热熔焊对接接头的内部质量仍然没有找到可靠的无损检测方法。提出超声无损检测方法对焊接接头进行检测,首先分析了超声检测原理,然后设计和制备含缺陷的PE管焊接接头试块,通过建立实验测试系统,选择和标定测试参数,选用2 MHz纵波对试样进行超声检测,衰减系数约为0.633 d B/mm,实际K值约为0.94。检测结果表明,采用超声纵波倾斜入射的方式对焊接接头内部缺陷有很好检测灵敏度,可以获得缺陷位置,误差约为1~2 mm,可以满足工程需要,但是对于缺陷的定量还需要做进一步研究。
