Dieser Artikel behandelt die physikalischen Grundlagen der Schallausbreitung. Deren Verständnis bildet die Grundlage für die Entwicklung geeigneter Prüfsysteme. An Beispielen werden verschiedene Möglichkeiten zur Simulation der Schallausbereitung vorgestellt. Aktuelle Lösungsansätze zur Prüfung von plattenförmigen Strukturen und von Rohrleitungen werden beschrieben, wobei besonders auf die Sensortechnik und die speziellen Anforderungen an die Prüfhardware eingegangen wird. N2 - Guided waves are widely used for non-destructive testing using ultrasound. Recently, the method has become increasingly important for integrity tests of spatially extended components with limited accessibility. This article discusses the basic physics of the sound propagation of guided waves. Their understanding forms the basis for the successful development of adapted inspection systems. Examples for simulating the wave propagation using different methods are presented. Current approaches for the inspection of plate-like structures and pipelines are described with focus on sensor technology and the specific requirement on the test hardware.

The objective is to make a statement about the practicability of a Lamb wave generator (LWG) and about the application relevant parameters (specimen materials and dimensions, wave characteristics, excitation, transmission und reflection). Guided waves enable an effective differentiation of structural and defective indications as well as a classification of different defect types. For the investigations, a LWG was developed which combines the advantages of the single excitation of a piezoelectric actuator and the possibility of a group excitation. Algorithms were developed to identify and analyze damage patterns (cracks, wholes, weakening).

A1 - Schiller, J. T1 - Radio-based multi-sensor system for person tracking and indoor positioning N2 - Sensor based person tracking is a challenging topic. The main objective is positioning in areas without GPS connection, i.e. indoors. A research project is carried out at BAM, Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing, to develop and to validate a multi-sensor system for 3D localization. It combines body motion sensing and a guard system for the tracking and recording of the status of persons. The so named BodyGuard system was designed for sensor-based monitoring and radio-based transmission of the movement of a person. Algorithms were developed to transform the sensor data into a spatial coordinate. Thispaper describes how the BodyGuard system operates, which main components were used in the system, how the individual sensor data are converted into 3D motion data, with which algorithms the individual sensors are processed, how individual errors are compensated and how the sensor data are merged into a 3D Model. Final objective of the BodyGuard system is to determine the exact location of a person in a building, e.g. during fire-fighting operations.
