Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) techniques have been developed as a cost effective alternative to currently adopted Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) methods which have well understood levels of performance. Quantitative performance assessment, as used in NDT, needs to be applied to SHM techniques to establish their performance levels as a basis for technique comparison and also as a requirement for practical aerospace application according to set regulations. One such measurand is Probability of Detection (POD). This paper reports experiments conducted to investigate the location accuracy of the Acoustic Emission (AE) system in monitoring events from HsuNielson and fatigue crack AE sources as a route to establish the POD of AE in SHM. It was found that fatigue crack tips could be located at 90% POD within 10 mm accuracy. |
