Abstract

This paper reports the results of a case study for the evaluation of surface damage by using acoustic nonlinearity of surface wave. In this study, the experimental system was constructed to measure the acoustic nonlinear parameter of surface wave in an Aluminum 6061 T6 specimen of which surface was damaged by the three point bending fatigue test, and magnitudes of nonlinear parameter measured before and after the fatigue test were compared. Especially, since the surface fatigue damage by the three point bending is concentrated at the central position of loading, the change in the nonlinear parameter around this position was monitored. Experimental results showed that the measured nonlinear parameter at the outside of this position after the fatigue test was almost same as the initial value before the fatigue test, since the fatigue damage at this position was little. However, clear increase in the nonlinear parameter was noticed after the fatigue test at the central position of specimen where the surface fatigue damage is expected to be concentrated.

이 논문은 표면파의 비선형특성을 이용하여 재료 표면의 열화손상을 평가한 사례 연구의 결과를 보고한다. 이 연구에서는 3점 굽힘 피로시험에 의해 표면에 피로열화를 가한 알루미늄 T6 시편을 대상으로 표면파의 음향 비선형 파라미터를 측정하기 위한 실험장치를 구성하였으며, 피로시험 전후에서 측정된 비선형파라미터의 크기를 비교하였다. 특히 3점 굽힘 피로시험에 의한 표면피로손상은 시편의 중앙부 표면에 집중 될 것이 예상되므로 이 주변에서의 비선형 파라미터의 변화를 세밀히 관찰하였다. 실험결과 피로손상이 거의 없는 시편의 가장자리에서는 비선형 파라미터가 피로시험 전후에서 큰 변화가 없었지만, 표면 피로열화가 집중된 중앙부에서는 뚜렷하게 증가하는 것으로 나타났다.
