Abstract:

In this paper,the acoustic emission source with slewing ring is roughly located via a linear time-difference-of-arrival ( TDOA) location method. Then,in order to overcome the low precision resulting from the threshold-based TDOA estimation and improve the location accuracy of acoustic emission source,a correction signal isconstructed,and the corresponding smooth pseudo Wigner-Ville distribution ( SPWD) is calculated to obtain a correctionvalue of the threshold-based TDOA.The results show that the corrected TDOA helps to improve the locationaccuracy of the acoustic emission source with slewing ring,with a maximum absolute error decreasing from 23.63mmto 11.57mm.

Key words: acoustic emission, source location, linear time-difference-of-arrival location, smooth pseudo Wigner-Ville distribution, slewing ring
