Research and Application of Log Defect Detection and Visualization System Based on Dry Coupling Ultrasonic Method

In order to optimize the wood internal quality detection and evaluation system and improve the comprehensive utilization rate of wood,this paper invented a set of log internal defect detection and visualization system by using the ultrasonic dry coupling agent method.The detection and visualization analysis of internal log defects were realized through log specimen test.The main conclusions show that the accuracy,reliability and practicability of the system for detecting the internal defects of log specimens have been effectively verified.The system can make the edge of the detected image smooth by interpolation algorithm,and the edge detection algorithm can be used to detect and reflect the location of internal defects of logs accurately.The content mentioned above has good application value for meeting the requirement of increasing demand for wood resources and improving the automation level of wood nondestructive testing instruments.

A comparative study on water and dry coupling in photoacoustic tomography of the finger joints

We present a systematical study on comparison between water and dry coupling in photoacoustic tomography of the humanfinger joints.Compared to the direct water immersion of thefinger for water coupling,the dry coupling is realized through a transparent PDMSfilm-based water bag,which ensures water-free contact with the skin.The results obtained suggest that the dry cou-pling provides image quality comparable to that by water coupling while eliminating the wrin-kling of thefinger joint caused by the water immersion.In addition,the dry coupling offers more stable hemodynamic images than the water coupling as the water immersion of thefinger joint causes reduction in blood vessel size.

EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH ON THE ULTRASONIC TECHNIQUE AND ITS APPLICATION IN STUDYING ROCK PROPERTIES

The experimental installation and measurement system of ultrasonic wave property in rocks during complete stress-strain process were established and perfected. The interrelations between ultrasonic wave property of muds tone, sands tone and limestone specimens during complete stress-strain process and their mechanic property were investigated. A new type of device for the observation of surrounding rock stability-borehole ultrasonic device with completely dry coupling was developed to get better coupling and more accurate measurement data comparing with those of water coupling situation. Preliminary study on the application of ultrasonic measurement technique at belt conveyor roadway of north wing in Baodian Coal Mine (Shandong province) was conducted. Based on the interrelations between the complete stress-strain properties of specimens and their wave properties, the structural properties of surrounding rocks, the range of yield zones, and the change of stresses within surrounding rocks when a longwall face was across over the roadway were analyzed.Therefore,a new and feasible way was found for the research on the deformation law of surrounding rock of roadway and rational selection of support parameters.
