Description
Summary:This study aims to show the influences of the sensor installation interface in the industrial environment. This contribution is focused on analyzing the response behavior of piezoelectric transducers subjected to successive installations, using digital signal processing and non-destructive structural health monitoring (SHM) techniques. Tests were performed to simulate the installation conditions of a piezoelectric sensor, which was coupled to a holder carrying a steel body and submitted to successive reinstallations. Different signals were obtained for each installation, and the results can bring initial elucidations on the subject and pave the way for future studies.
