Abstract

Carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP) have been used as one of the options to strengthen steel structures through adhesive bonding, particularly in specific applications where traditional strengthening methods may not be suitable. Therefore, it becomes crucial to perform inspections on the resulting CFRP-steel adhesive structures (CSAS) to ensure their structural integrity and safety. However, the distinct physical properties of CFRP, epoxy resin, and steel pose significant challenges to accurately inspecting bonding interface defects of such special hybrid engineering structures. To address these challenges, a new approach, streamlined one-dimensional convolutional denoising autoencoder-low-power vibrothermography (SOCDAE-LVT), is proposed in this study to enhance the recognition of bonding interface defects within CSAS. This approach utilizes thermal signals from low-power vibrothermography (LVT) to enhance the recognizability of CSAS bonding interface defects. A low-power vibrothermography inspection system was developed to acquire thermal signals on the surface of CSAS samples. A streamlined one-dimensional convolutional denoising autoencoder (SOCDAE) model was designed for robust representation extraction of the thermal signal at each pixel point. The study further investigated the impact of different types of added noise and signal pre-processing approaches on the performance of the SOCDAE-LVT, aiming to optimize its effectiveness. By comparing qualitatively and quantitatively with the state-of-the-art approaches, the results show that the proposed approach can better improve the recognizability of defects. The enhanced recognizability of bonding interface defects enables accurate assessment of the quality of CSAS, thereby contributing to the safety of such structures.

期刊介绍: Construction and Building Materials offers an international platform for sharing innovative and original research and development in the realm of construction and building materials, along with their practical applications in new projects and repair practices. The journal publishes a diverse array of pioneering research and application papers, detailing laboratory investigations and, to a limited extent, numerical analyses or reports on full-scale projects. Multi-part papers are discouraged. Additionally, Construction and Building Materials features comprehensive case studies and insightful review articles that contribute to new insights in the field. Our focus is on papers related to construction materials, excluding those on structural engineering, geotechnics, and unbound highway layers. Covered materials and technologies encompass cement, concrete reinforcement, bricks and mortars, additives, corrosion technology, ceramics, timber, steel, polymers, glass fibers, recycled materials, bamboo, rammed earth, non-conventional building materials, bituminous materials, and applications in railway materials.
