A research on detecting and recognizing bridge cracks in complex underwater conditions
Journal Title: Frattura ed Integrità Strutturale - Year 2014, Vol 8, Issue 30
Abstract
The method aims to recognize and extract the characteristic parameters of bridge cracks based on images of the cracks obtained through the application of preprocessing technologies, such as graying, graphical enhancements, spatial filtering, gray-level threshold segmentation, etc.. The approach has been tested for accuracy to avoid the incorrect identification of chaff as a method error. The proposed method has proved to be rather accurate and effective in extracting information on cracks from the bridge image tests.

Role of plasticity-induced crack closure in fatigue crack growth
The premature contact of crack surfaces attributable to the near-tip plastic deformations under cyclic loading, which is commonly referred to as plasticity induced crack closure (PICC), has long been focused as sup...
Rilievo in tempo reale di difetti superficiali su corpi in movimento a velocità elevata con ultrasuoni senza contatto
Il rilievo di difetti superficiali durante le ispezioni periodiche è importante poiché in genere le sollecitazioni sono maggiori in superficie e possono accelerare la crescita delle discontinuità. I difetti superfi...
