Abstract
The piezoelectric ceramic sensor was fixed on Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastic (GFRP) composite civil materials, using the external paste method for damage detection test. The effect of the depth and number of cracks on the surface of the GFRP specimen on the signal received by the piezoelectric ceramic sensor was studied. The time-domain signal graph and energy graph based on wavelet packet were drawn, combining the active induction method and the energy method based on wavelet packet. It is found that the greater the damage degree of GFRP specimens, the smaller the voltage value of the signal, the smaller the energy of the signal, and the greater the damage index based on wavelet packet. The results showed that the active induction method can be used to collect the data of GFRP specimens by piezoelectric ceramic sensor. The collected data are processed by using the damage index principle based on wavelet packet. The maximum voltage value of the specimen, the energy of wavelet packet, and the damage index based on wavelet packet can all accurately judge the damage change of GFRP specimens. The active induction method based on piezoelectric ceramic sensor can detect the damage change of GFRP specimens in real time. It provides an effective method for damage analysis of GFRP composite civil materials.
