The Acoustic Emission is a method that we use in order to recognize and locate failures in materials or/and structures either while we are using them or they are operating or by exerting force upon them. In other words, implementing this technique, we are able to identify when and where a discontinuity has occurred while either the object, we examine, is working or we are pressing it. In this way, as we become aware of the exact place and extent of defects of useful objects at the time they happen, we are able to refit them readily. In this thesis, our goal is to configure a program for locating discontinuities in objects, which we examine, by the usage of a single sensor. This project is particularly interesting and the results that have been come out of it are useful as well, since we try to locate the sources of these failures by making use of less equipment than it is expected to; merely with a single sensor and one programmable embedded system. Therefore, the cost of the whole construction is little and we are in need of less space for the equipment to be established. |
