Original abstract

This work presents the application of the acoustic emission technique for detection and characterization of early fatigue damage. Specifically various manifestations of the localized plastic deformation that is the precursor of microcrack formation. A nuclear Cr-Ni-Mo-V low-alloy steel has been chosen for this study. The acoustic emission signal has been correlated with the defect formation mechanisms and the registration of loading (resonant) frequency changes of the tested specimen taken by RUMUL fatigue machine. The work is focused on the analysis of the acoustic emission signal during opening and closure half-cycle.

Czech abstract

Tato práce prezentuje využití metody akustické emise pro detekci a popis raných stádií únavového poškození. Zejména se jedná o různé projevy lokalizované plastické deformace, která předchází tvorbě mikrotrhlin. Pro tuto studii byla vybrána reaktorová Cr-Ni-Mo-V nízkolegovaná ocel. Signál akustické emise byl korelaván s různými mechanismy vzniku trhlin a průběhem zatěžovací (rezonanční) frekvence zkušebních vzorků z únavového zařízení RUMUL. Práce je zaměřena na analýzu signálu akustické emise při otevírání a zavírání trhliny.
