Abstract

Bogie is one of the most critical parts of high-speed train and is directly related to the operation quality and safety of the train. However, currently no dynamic non-destructive testing method exists for real-time monitoring. Therefore, this paper proposes a new damage localization method for high-speed train bogie dynamic testing. The acoustic emission testing technology is applied to test the vulnerable welding parts of the bogie with time reversal localization method. Firstly, the bogie welding parts structure model based on finite element software is established. Then an acoustic emission damage signal is sent from the model and the acoustic emission source signal is received by the preset acoustic emission sensor. And the accurate localization of damage is achieved by dealing with the received signal according to the time reversal focusing principle and imaging the acoustic emission source. The simulation experiments show that the proposed method can accurately find the damaged localization. And finally, the method has been verified through experiment, and the results show it can effectively improve signal energy of the damage source, and the position of the damage source can be shown accurately through signal reconstruction and localization in the detection area.
