The acoustic emission (AE) technique is known as a non-destructive testing (NDT) method, which is effective for assessing corrosion in concrete structures. This study aims to utilize the AE technique, for the assessment of pre-corroded concrete specimens, which are under load testing. Experiments were carried out on small-scale pre-corroded specimens, which were subjected to monotonic loading. The results showed that the majority of the beam specimens failed with shear cracks. Three AE parameters, namely acoustic emission hits, as well as the RA and AF values, were also used, in order to assess the flexure behaviour of the pre-corroded beam specimens. These experiments helped to understand the flexural behaviour of pre-corroded specimens, which were under a loading test, via the use of the AE technique.

Field Strengths

In relaxor (1-x)SrTiO3-xBiFeO3 ferroelectrics ceramics (x = 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4) both intermediate temperatures and Burns temperatures were successfully detected and their behavior were investigated in dependence on an external bias field using an acoustic emission. All these temperatures exhibit a non-trivial behavior, i.e. attain the minima at some threshold fields as a bias field enhances. It is established that the threshold fields decrease as x increases in (1-x)SrTiO3-xBiFeO3, as it previously observed in (1-x)SrTiO3-xBaTiO3 (E. Dul'kin, J. Zhai, M. Roth, Phys. Status Solidi B 252, 2079 (2015)). Based on the data of the threshold fields the mechanisms of arising of random electric fields are discussed and their strengths are compared in both these relaxor ferroelectrics.
