The ultrasonic signals reflected from defect-free pipelines and from pipelines with defects were processed using Hilbert-Huang transform, a recently developed signal processing technique based on direct extraction of the energy associated with the intrinsic time scales in the signal. Experimental results showed that the proposed method is feasible and can accurately and efficiently determine the location and size of defects in pipelines.展开更多
