Non-destructive testing - Terminology - Part 9: Terms used in acoustic emission testing

This European standard is concerned only with terms used specifically in acoustic emission testing (AT) and these fall into four parts:
-   Terms relating to the physical phenomenon;
-   Terms relating to the detection of the acoustic emission;
-   Terms relating to the measured acoustic emission signal(s);
-   Terms relating to acoustic emission applications.

Zerstörungsfreie Prüfung - Terminologie - Teil 9: Begriffe der Schallemissionsprüfung

Diese Europäische Norm betrifft nur jene Begriffe, die speziell auf dem Gebiet der Schallemissionsprüfung (AT) verwendet werden. Sie werden in vier Gruppen eingeteilt:
-   Ausdrücke, die sich auf das physikalische Phänomen beziehen;
-   Ausdrücke, die sich auf die Detektion von Schallemission beziehen;
-   Ausdrücke, die sich auf die gemessenen Schallemissionssignale beziehen;
-   Ausdrücke, die sich auf Anwendungen der Schallemission beziehen.

Essais non-destructifs - Terminologie - Partie 9: Termes utilisés en contrôle par émission acoustique

La présente norme européenne définit uniquement les termes spécifiques au contrôle de l’émission acoustique (AT) que l’on peut classer selon quatre catégories :
-   termes relatifs au phénomène physique
-   termes relatifs à la détection de l’émission acoustique
-   termes relatifs au(x) signal(signaux) d’émission acoustique mesuré(s)
-   termes relatifs aux applications de l’émission acoustique.

Foreword
This document (prEN 1330-9:2007) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 138 “Non-
destructive testing”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 1330-9:2000.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EC Directive(s).
prEN 1330-9:2007 (E)
1 Scope
This European standard is concerned only with
terms used specifically in acoustic emission testing
(AT) and these fall into four parts:
• Terms relating to the physical
phenomenon;
• Terms relating to the detection of the
acoustic emission;
• Terms relating to the measured
characteristics of the signal(s);
• Terms relating to acoustic emission
applications.
2 Acoustic emission (AE)
Phenomena whereby transient elastic waves are
generated by e.g. plastic deformation, crack
propagation, erosion, corrosion, impact, leakage.

3 Terms relating to the physical
phenomenon
3.1 acoustic emission event
physical phenomenon giving rise to acoustic
emission.
prEN 1330-9:2007 (E)
3.2 acoustic emission source
spatial element from which one or more acoustic
emission events originate.
3.3 acoustic emission wave
transient elastic waves generated by the release of
energy within a material or by a process

3.4 acoustic emission wave
elastic wave energy released by an acoustic
emission event.
4 Terms relating to the detection of
the acoustic emission
4.1 acoustic emission sensor
device that converts the particle motion produced
by an elastic wave into an electrical signal.

4.2 acoustic emission couplant
material used at the test object-to-sensor interface
to improve the transmission of acoustic emission
waves across the interface.
4.3 burst emission
occurrence of acoustic emission events which can
be separated in time.
prEN 1330-9:2007 (E)
4.4 continuous emission
occurrence of acoustic emission events which
cannot be separated in time.
4.5 acoustic emission waveguide
a device used for the transmission of acoustic
emission waves from the test object to the acoustic
emission sensor, when direct coupling is
impractical.
4.6 acoustic emission signal
electrical signal from an acoustic emission sensor
produced by the acoustic emission wave.
NOTE: Other disturbances e.g. EMI may be
present on this signal.
4.7 burst signal (burst)
acoustic emission signal having identifiable
beginning and end (see figure 1).
