ABSTRACT:
A process for global monitoring of a structure for location of a source of acoustic emissions using the vibration modes of a structure together with the repetition rate of acoustic emission events in said structure thereby allowing determination of source location of acoustic emission events in said structure is provided. Further a process for identifying the arrival of different modes of lamb waves at the same transducer distance, based on the different propagation velocities of these modes is also provided so as to determine the distance from a single transducer to the source of said lamb waves.
