Abstract:Taking advantage of the interevent time intervals, namely the time intervals between two successive acoustic events recorded during mechanical loading of structural elements, it is attempted to detect indices warning about upcoming failure. The innovative aspect of the study is that the analysis is implemented in the frame of Non-Extensive Statistical Mechanics, a discipline founded on a class of entropies violating the additivity principle, which is the cornerstone of the Boltzmann-Gibbs Statistical Mechanics… Show more
