The imaging detection of ultrasonic guided waves in plates using arc sparse arrays is highly significant for weld scattering conditions. A novel approach for detecting welded plate structures using the left rank of ultrasonic guided waves in arc sparse arrays was proposed. The relationship between the receiving matrix and the left rank was analyzed, along with the connection between the arc sparse array with the left rank and the receiving aperture. The imaging mechanism of the ultrasonic guided waves in arc sparse arrays with left rank under weld scattering conditions was investigated. The results of imaging experiments demonstrated a downward trend in the gray and background gray of the multi-frame images. As the left rank reaches approximately 64% of the full rank, the slope of the image gray and background gray decreases gradually, leading to the appearance of an inflection point. With an increasing signal-to-noise ratio curve, the imaging improved during the multi-frame imaging process of ultrasonic guided waves for the arc sparse arrays with left rank under weld scattering conditions. This research showed that the multi-frame imaging of ultrasonic guided waves in welded structural plates using arc sparse arrays with left rank effectively characterized scattering information with millimeter-scale wavelength size. The experimental results validated the feasibility of the theoretical analysis. This research provides a crucial foundation for the further exploration and application of the multi-frame imaging detection of ultrasonic guided waves using irregular arrays in welded structural plates. |
