Abstract
Measurement strategies for testing fuel tank corrosion using the ultrasonic Phased Array technology, these have been developed by companies producing ultrasonic measuring instruments, are only applied when performing manual measurement. Therefore, the applying of these measurement strategies for self-propelled robot carrying ultrasonic transducers to automate the testing process have not met the demand. This article presents the results of a study to develop a measurement strategy for testing fuel tank corrosion based on the specification of the self-propelled robot, the ability to build a corrosion map from collected image data by robot. Experimental results show that, with the three proposed measurement strategies using robot, the measurement strategy for moving the robot from bottom to top up will have the shortest testing time, image data are next and data coupling to build a corrosion map is easy. In addition, the process of building a corrosion map can be automatically performed on the computer, making the assessment process more convenient, accurate and faster.
