On-Line Seam Detection in Rolling Processes Using Snake Projection and Discrete Wavelet Transform
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes the development of an on-line quality inspection algorithm for detecting the surface defect “seam” generated in rolling processes. A feature-preserving “snake-projection” method is proposed for dimension reduction by converting the suspicious seam-containing images to one-dimensional sequences. Discrete wavelet transform is then performed on the sequences for feature extraction. Finally, a T2 control chart is established based on the extracted features to distinguish real seams from false positives. The snake-projection method has two parameters that impact the effectiveness of the algorithm. Thus, selection of the parameters is discussed. Implementation of the proposed algorithm shows that it satisfies the speed and accuracy requirements for on-line seam detection. DOI: 10.1115/1.2752519

Effect of the frequency content of earthquake excitation on damage detection in steel frames
In this study, the effect of earthquake frequency content and noise effects on damage detection has been investigated. For this purpose, the damage was defined as nonlinear behavior of beams and columns, and several ground motion records were scaled so that some elements yield under the applied excitation. Then the acceleration response data of each floor obtained using the nonlinear dynamic an...
