Porosity Detection by Analyzing arc Sound Signal Acquired During the Welding Process of Gas Pipeline Steel

Detection of severe defects such as porosity underneath the weld bead during the welding process is vital during installation of a gas pipeline network because such defects might lead to fatigue crack. In this study, the work associated with detection of porosity through analysis of the acquired arc...
