Original abstract

This paper discusses the relationship between Acoustic Emission (AE) and different types of defects in pneumatic cylinders, shedding light on a new approach to determining these types of defects and distinguishing between them through Acoustic Emission. Difficulties that face the defects detection process are related to the types of the defects which occur, and the available methods for detection. A detection coefficient has been assigned to each cylinder by applying different methods of non-destructive testing, where a set of cylinders, which have defects that are difficult to detect, were determined. Two of those defects in the cylinders are artificially made, and it is difficult to discover the differences between undamaged and damaged cylinders in this set using current methods. Therefore, the necessary parameters for comparison have been selected after analysing the signals that were obtained from the tests. The average energy of Acoustic Emission signal RMS gives a clear picture of the different responses between damaged and undamaged pneumatic cylinders.
