High-precision multiple defect detection and localization in composite laminates using integrated piezoelectric sensing, regression and neural networks methods
摘要
This study presents a novel methodology that integrates piezoelectric actuation and sensing with regression models and neural networks for high-accuracy detection and localization of multiple delamination and crack defects in composite laminates. An eight-layer graphite/epoxy composite plate, instrumented with piezoelectric patches, is excited using random voltage stimuli, generating structural responses captured by sensors. The proposed framework employs six regression techniques and artificial neural networks, achieving localization accuracy with
