Research on Acoustic Emission Signal of Three-dimensional Braided Composite Material
This paper discusses the application and experimental method of acoustic emission for the three-dimensional (3D) braided composite material under flexural testing. It describes the feature of acoustic emission when applied to three-dimensional braided composite material under flexural testing. In order to know the materials damage position precisely, it is very important to collect the signal of acoustic emission source. The results of flexural experiment show that it is precise on the research of acoustic emission source location by the method of wave form analysis. During the collecting signal of acoustic emission, it is compared between parameter analysis and wave form analysis. According to the attenution degree of signal, it is selected signal of acoustic emission source exactly. It is the method to extract the precise acoustic emission signal by the different algorithm of wavelet analysis.
