Continuous baseline update using recurrence quantification analysis for damage detection with guided ultrasonic waves

B. Maack, C. Brandt, M. Koerdt, C. Polle, A. S. Herrmann

For the safe operation of vehicles and full utilization of lightweight materials, assurance of structural integrity is a prerequisite at all times. Structural health monitoring with permanently installed transducers offers a great advantage for primary load-bearing structures of all means of transportation and other safety-relevant components such as hydrogen tanks: allowing damage detection during operation. One means to detect internal defects is the method of guided ultrasonic waves (GUWs), which can be generated and recorded by piezoelectric transducers. GUWs propagate along the elongated dimension of a structure, and a transducer network can completely cover and monitor structures. Defects can alter the signal along affected paths and allow for their detection. However, a challenge and obstacle for the application of such a testing technique in the service of means of transportation is the large influence of temperatures. These influences are difficult to distinguish from the effect of defects. One approach to overcome this difficulty is the "continuous baseline update". Recurrence quantification analysis is tested and compared to established features as a new approach to "continuous baseline update" in this paper. Publicly available GUW data (http://www.openguidedwayes.de/) recorded under varying temperature conditions have been used to show how the methods perform. They reliably separate temperature and damage effects, while the recurrence quantification analysis yields the best results.
