Statistical Signal Processing and Sorting for Acoustic Emission Monitoring of High-Temperature Pressure Components

A study was conducted to demonstrate feasibility of designing and developing a reliable and real-time monitoring methodology based on statistical pattern recognition for early detection of defects in small, low-alloy steel vessels. These low-alloy steel vessels were pressurized at high temperature w...
