Abstract

Aimed at eddy current detection of defects in thin-walled stainless steel seamless pipes, an effective detection method for identifying defect types is proposed. First, the empirical mode decomposition (EMD) method is used to process the collected eddy current signals and obtain the principal intrinsic mode function (IMF) components of different defects. The Hilbert-Huang transform (HHT) is used to extract the frequency-domain features of the principal IMF components, which are combined with the time-domain features to form an effective defect feature vector. Then, principal component analysis (PCA) is used to reduce the dimensions of the defect feature vector and the redundant information is removed to obtain the principal component vector of the defect. Finally, two radial basis function (RBF) neural networks are used to identify and classify the defect types and three error evaluation indicators are selected to evaluate the performance of the classification network models.
