Novel wavelet self-optimisation threshold denoising method in axle press-fit ultrasonic defect detection

Abstract: Novel wavelet self-optimisation threshold denoising method in axle press-fit ultrasonic defect detectionAxles are one of the most important parts of railway locomotives and vehicles. The periodic ultrasonic inspection of axles can effectively detect and monitor axle fatigue cracks. However, in the wheel-seat press-fit zone, the complex interface contact condition reduces the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Therefore, the probability of false positives and false negatives increases. A novel wavelet threshold funct… Show more

“…Thus, one of the main aims of the Euraxles research project [23] has become minimizing the risk of axle failure either by improving available nondestructive techniques, or by developing new ones also. The project mainly focused on ultrasonic techniques (UT) [24], which are the non-destructive techniques most widely used in the railway field [25][26][27][28][29]. In this regard, when visual testing (VT) reveals small defects on the surface, such as paint damage (peeling) or corrosion pits, magnetic particles testing (MT) and ultrasonic testing (UT) are the recommended inspection techniques, according to the adopted maintenance standard procedure [30].…”

“…Consequently, flaw echo detection may be challenging. Numerous methods have been proposed to enhance flaw echoes, such as split spectrum processing [1,2,3,4], wavelet transforms [5,6,7,8,9,10], the Stockwell transform [11,12,13,14], and empirical mode decomposition (EMD) [15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22] (including the so-called ensemble EMD, i.e., EEMD [23]).…”
