Possibility of Evaluating a Depth of Defects as a Hole in a Composite Dielectric Sample by the Parameters of Electric Response to Pulse Mechanical Excitation
The applicability of the method mechanoelectrical transformations (MET) to determine the depth of the macrodefects location in the sample on parameters of the electromagnetic response is evaluated. As the response parameter it was used the phase characteristic of the signal analytical representation.On the one-dimensional mathematical model it was shown the possibility to detect phase response changes when reflected from defect acoustic wave is mixed with the signal spurious component generated by a distributed MET sources. Experimental verification of mathematical model on a sample of concrete was conducted. It has been shown that the sensitivity of the method MET to evaluation of the macrodefect locate depth depends on the wavelength of the excitation pulse and the area of the macrodefect border closest to the emitter-receiver system.
