The laser ultrasonic detection platform taking use of thermoelastic mechanism as acoustic signal excitation method and interference receiver as acoustic signal receiver method was built, by which B-scan images of detected specimens with surface defects were collected to establish the relationship between the transmission coefficient and depth of the surface defect. Experimental results show that the amplitude of transmitted acoustic signal is related to the depth of surface defect. At last, a fitted curve of transmission coefficient using measured experimental data is obtained to estimate depth of surface defect on the 6061 aluminum alloy. Furthermore, a surface defect depth of 0.3 mm is estimated by the fitting curve with an estimated error of 16%. Therefore, a experimental method using the transmission method by laser ultrasonic is presented in this paper.展开更多

Based on the investigation and evaluation method of detection environment of national ground meteorological observation stations and high-altitude meteorological observation stations, satellite remote sensing data, and climate analysis method, the evaluation method of detection environment and meteorological data was improved to comprehensively assess the detection environment and meteorological data of stations. After the evaluation results were compared with the results of the survey and evaluation in 2013, it is found that the new assessment method maintains the continuity of detection environment assessment and can objectively reflect the changes of the station detection environment. The research on the method and standard for the evaluation of detection environment and data analysis of meteorological stations provides a scientific basis for the establishment of detection environmental protection plans by stations at all levels, and provides technical support for the scientific and rational adjustment of station network by administrative departments at all levels.展开更多

The proposed method uses the sparse degree of coefficient in the redundant dictionary for checking whether the test image is defective or not, and the binary representation of the defective images is obtained, according to the global coefficient feature. Owing to the requirements for the efficiency and detecting quality, the block proximal gradient operator is introduced to speed up the online dictionary learning. Considering the correlation among the testing samples, prior knowledge is applied in the orthogonal-matching-pursuit sparse representation algorithm to improve the speed of sparse coding. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed detection method can effectively detect and extract the defects of the surface images, and has broad applicability.展开更多
