Acoustic Emission and Sensor Actuation

During acoustic emission measurement, we detect and analyze various sound phenomena, enabling the prediction of defects. This method is used to examine anisotropy, which shows changes in the propagation direction of sound waves. Anisotropy aids in identifying stress directions and determining the orientation of structural defects. To achieve this, we create polar diagrams based on the incoming data, which also provide valuable information through their shape. For accurate anisotropy determination, we have developed a mechanism that optimally positions the sensors, thereby enhancing the manual measurement technique.
