COQTEL project dataset : Corrosion quantification trough extended use of Lamb waves

Year: 2025

Type: data-paper

Abstract: Corrosion poses significant safety and cost challenges in the aeronautic industry. Ultrasonic Lamb Waves (LW), emitted and received by a sparse array of piezoelectric elements (PZT), offer an efficient, cost-effective, and versatile solution for corrosion monitoring. This dataset corresponds to two experiments involving a LW solution based on a sparse PZT array and able to monitor corrosion pit growth on a 316L stainless steel plate during controlled corrosion. The corrosion pit size is electrochemically controlled by the imposed electrical potential and the injection of a corrosive NaCl solution through a capillary at the desired pit location. Simultaneously, the corrosion pit growth is monitored in-situ every 10 seconds using a sparse array of 4 PZTs bonded to the back of the steel plate. Two independent experiments were conducted to assess the repeatability of this approach. The collected dataset collected can facilitate the development of Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) algorithms and methodologies, provide data for waves/damage interaction modeling, and help bridging the gap between research and industry in this domain.
