The ultrasonic signals reflected from defect-free pipelines and from pipelines with defects were processed using Hilbert-Huang transform, a recently developed signal processing technique based on direct extraction of the energy associated with the intrinsic time scales in the signal. Experimental results showed that the proposed method is feasible and can accurately and efficiently determine the location and size of defects in pipelines.展开更多

In this work, empirical mode decomposition (EMD) is proposed to deal with ultrasonic signal. A time-frequency filtering method based on EMD is designed to suppress noise and enhance flaw signals. Simulated results are presented, showing that the proposed method has an excellent performance even for a very low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The improvement in flaw detection was experimentally verified using stainless steel pipe sample with artificial flaws.展开更多
