In order to study acoustic emission (AE) signals characteristics of pitting corrosion on carbon steel, Pitting corrosion process on carbon steel in 6% ferric chloride solution was monitored by AE technology. K-mean cluster algorithm was used to classify the monitored AE signals, in which the duration, counts, amplitude, absolute energy and peak frequency were analyzed as the AE signals characteristics, and different types AE sources were identified. The results showed that there were mainly three type AE sources during carbon steel pitting corrosion process in ferric chloride solution, and the different types AE sources could be classified by cluster analysis. The research results have some certain significance for AE monitoring of pitting corrosion on carbon steel.

Based on the characteristics of the acoustic emission (AE) signals from low carbon steel pitting corrosion, a new extraction method was proposed with wavelet transformation and independent component analysis. The experiment result shows that the new method can overcome the influence induced by the uncertainty of the independent source of low carbon steel pitting corrosion and good extraction result can be achieved.

In order to study acoustic emission (AE) signals waveform characteristics of pitting corrosion on 304 stainless steel under higher temperature than lower one, Pitting corrosion process on 304 stainless steel in 6% ferric chloride solution at 70°C was monitored by AE technology. Wavelet transform and mode acoustic emission technology were combined to deal with recorded AE signals, and micromorphologic observation was performed for further verification. The results showed that signal waveform was mainly composed of low-frequency (<100KHz) flexural wave with larger amplitude & energy and high-frequency (>100KHz) expansion wave with lesser amplitude & energy. The research results have some certain significance for AE monitoring of pitting corrosion on 304 stainless steel.

Repeated daily intravenous injections of ferric chloride solution are followed by an accumulation of iron in tuberculous areas of lungs. The iron accumulates in the caseous areas of tubercles and is demonstrable by the Prussian blue reaction. Quantitative determinations corroborate these results and show that the iron content of lung tissue in tuberculous animals injected with ferric chloride exceeds that in normal animals injected with this salt, as well as that in non-injected tuberculous animals.

Acoustic emission (AE) techniques are put forward to monitor rub-impacts between rotating rings and stationary rings of mechanical seals by this paper. By analyzing feature extraction methods of the typical rub-impact AE signal, the method combining of wavelet scalogram and power spectrum is found useful, and can used to attribute the feature information implicated in rub-impact AE signals of mechanical seal end faces. Both simulations and experimental research prove that the method is effective, and are used successfully to identify the typical features of different types of rub-impacts of mechanical seal end faces.

The acoustic emission (AE) technique was applied to monitor the pitting corrosion of carbon steel in NaHCO3 + NaCl solutions. The open circuit potential (OCP) measurement and corrosion morphology in-situ capturing using an optical microscope were conducted during AE monitoring. The corrosion micromorphology was characterized with a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The propagation behavior and AE features of natural pitting on carbon steel were investigated. After completion of the signal processing, including pre-treatment, shape preserving interpolation, and denoising, for raw AE waveforms, three types of AE signals were classified in the correlation diagrams of the new waveform parameters. Finally, a 2D pattern recognition method was established to calculate the similarity of different continuous AE graphics, which is quite effective to distinguish the localized corrosion from uniform corrosion.
