Popis: | Adhesive and its aging can have influence on the Piezoelectric (PZT) elements in structural health monitoring (SHM) systems. However, the current research pays little attention to the effect of adhesives in SHM systems, and the mechanism of adhesive aging on monitoring signals is still unclear. In the present study, the relationship between types of adhesives, adhesive thickness, accelerated aging, and monitoring signal was analyzed in detail. The study was carried out with three kinds of epoxy resin AB adhesive (AW106, E-30CL, and E-120HP) and bonding thicknesses (0.01, 0.05, and 0.12 mm), and the elevated temperature was 100 ° C for 45 days. The signal-based monitoring method was used to extract the characteristic parameters. The experimental results indicated that the standard shear strength and thickness of the adhesive may have a combined effect on the monitoring signal. Increasing the thickness may enhance the shear strength between PZT and the matrix. For the effectiveness of monitoring the signal propagation, however, increase in thickness may have a negative influence. Moreover, the elevated temperature will bring the signal amplitude to a peak in the first period of aging, and the highest point appears in 10 to 15 days. Nevertheless, with the increase of aging time, the adhesive will finally be degraded, resulting in the decrease of the signal amplitude. The experimental results may provide useful information for practical monitoring in the SHM field. |
