Acoustic Emission Analysis for NDE in Concrete
Abstract Acoustic emission (AE) is one of the promising techniques for structural health monitoring (SHM) purposes in concrete structures. Due to its passive and non-invasive nature, it can be applied without disturbing the operation while it provides information that no other monitoring technique can. During the last decades great developments have taken place in the technical equipment and the analysis tools. The present chapter intents to summarize the recent trends in AE parameter analysis mainly related to fracture mode identification. This issue carries high importance since fracture of concrete materials and structures includes shifts between different modes. Therefore, its identification supplies information on the damage status. However, the characterization should remain as simple as possible in order to have the potential to be implemented in situ.
