An in-situ real-time hidden damage inspection on C-17 Globemaster III composite aileron using LSP technique under thermal excitation

Read Abstract +

A non-contact, full-field vision-based non-destructive inspection (V-NDI) system was developed with multiple damages detection capabilities in composite structures under thermal excitation. In contrast to point-based nondestructive inspection (P-NDI) systems employing laser Doppler vibrometer (LDV) with discrete wavefield captured by pointwise scanning, the V-NDI system captures higher spatial resolution wavefield by a CMOS camera for every time instance without repeating the experiment tens of thousand times to reassemble the wavefield like P-NDI. An Advanced Damage Processing Network (ADPNet) was proposed with laser speckle photometry (LSP) employed in a V-NDI system for hidden damages inspection. The LSP/ADPNet system relies on observing the variation of speckle clouds in time sequence without a baseline and is very insensitive to ambient noise with statistics-based image processing where traditional holography/ESPI suffers greatly. Other advances of LSP/ADPNet system are its robust tolerance of laser coherence, larger illumination area, flexible choice of correlation functions, and more advanced post-processing techniques such as Bayesian updating/inference or unsupervised image segmentation that can be readily applied. Thermal excitation can have very large power throughput in hundreds of watts compared to traditional PZT actuator, merely in a few watt ranges. Laser speckle itself is the result of self-interference scatter field reflected from a rough surface, and each speckle can be treated as a sensing point from a randomly distributed speckle cloud. By observing the variation of speckle cloud on the structure surface, displacement related quantities in higher dimensions (e.g. hypercomplex envelope, phase between real-valued signal and its quadrature, phase congruency, etc.) can be deduced by the Riesz bp transform and correlated in time sequence to highlight the location of hidden damages in a very effective way. Another novelty of this paper is to make a super compact real-time LSP system on LabVIEW FPGA by applying ADPNet comprised of the Riesz bp transform, non-linear filter bank and unsupervised image segmentation to quantify/characterize barely visible impact damages (BVID) on a C-17 Globemaster III composite aileron. To conclude, the images processed by LSP/ADPNet of a V-NDI system show a very good agreement with ultrasonic C-scan and pulse laser/LDV wavefield reconstruction results. It is also demonstrated to be more accurate and robust than Digital Image Correlation (DIC) for minute deformation (sub-nano to nano meter) measurement and large area (meter by meter) inspection under industrial environment.

Passive sensing technique may eliminate the need of expending power from actuators and thus provide a means of developing a compact and simple structural health monitoring system. More importantly, it may provide a solution for monitoring the aircraft subjected to environmental loading from air flow during operation. In this paper, a non-contact auto-correlation based technique is exploited as a feasibility study for passive sensing application to detect damage and isolate the damage location. Its theoretical basis bears some resemblance to reconstructing Green’s function from diffusive wavefield through cross-correlation. Localized high pressure air from air compressor are randomly and continuously applied on the one side surface of the aluminum panels through the air blow gun. A laser Doppler vibrometer (LDV) was used to scan a 90 mm × 90 mm area to create a 6 × 6 2D-array signals from the opposite side of the panels. The scanned signals were auto-correlated to reconstruct a “selfimpulse response” (or Green’s function). The premise for stably reconstructing the accurate Green’s function requires long sensing times. For a 609.6 mm × 609.6 mm flat aluminum panel, the sensing times roughly at least four seconds is sufficient to establish converged Green’s function through correlation. For the integral stiffened aluminum panel, the geometrical features of the panel expedite the formation of the diffusive wavefield and thus shorten the sensing times. The damage is simulated by gluing a magnet onto the panels. Reconstructed Green’s functions (RGFs) are used for damage detection and damage isolation based on an imaging condition with mean square deviation of the RGFs from the pristine and the damaged structure and the results are shown in color maps. The auto-correlation based technique is shown to consistently detect the simulated damage, image and isolate the damage in the structure subjected to high pressure air excitation. This technique may be transformed into passive sensing applied on the aircraft during operation.
