| Summary: | In view of the problems of poor safety, slow detection speed, and low accuracy of existing nondestructive testing (NDT) technologies, such as X-ray methods and ultrasonic detection in detecting electron beam weld defects in aluminum alloys, this study proposes a weak magnetic NDT method based on the geomagnetic field. Firstly, the finite element analysis method was used to establish a simulation model of aluminum alloy electron beam welding defects, and the distribution characteristics of the magnetic field around weld defects, such as cracks and pores, were obtained. Then, the magnetic anomaly signal at the crack weld was identified by combining the wavelet transform and the least squares method. Finally, experimental tests show that the proposed method can safely, quickly, and accurately detect the defects of aluminum alloy electron beam welds. |
