The ultrasonic guided wave detection is an important method for pipeline detection, has the characteristics of long detection distance, high efficiency, good adaptability and the like, and is widely applied to the field of pipeline detection in recent years. At present, the ultrasonic guided wave detection is developed from simple echo detection to imaging detection, so that the detection sensitivity is improved, and the visual display of the ultrasonic guided wave detection result is realized.
The typical ultrasonic guided wave imaging adopts a phased array focusing imaging technology, and the basic principle is that ultrasonic guided wave beams are focused at a specific position of a detected structure by controlling the delayed emission of signals of all channels of an ultrasonic guided wave transducer array, and the weight and the delay parameters of all the channels are adjusted on the basis, so that the movement of the ultrasonic guided wave focusing point can be realized, the purpose of ultrasonic guided wave scanning detection is achieved, and the scanning imaging result of the detected structure is obtained. The existing ultrasonic guided wave phased array focusing imaging technology adopts a global point-by-point scanning method in the scanning imaging process. When the ultrasonic guided wave is focused and detected, if the lower frequency is adopted, the detection range of the ultrasonic guided wave at the focusing position is larger, the larger moving distance of a focusing point can be adopted, but the detection resolution of the ultrasonic guided wave is lower, and the method is suitable for rough characterization of defects; if a higher frequency is adopted, the detection resolution of the ultrasonic guided wave is higher, but the detection range of the ultrasonic guided wave at the focusing position is smaller, and a smaller moving distance of a focusing point is required to be adopted, so that the method is suitable for quantitative characterization of defects.

As shown in fig. 4, the ultrasonic guided wave pipeline detection apparatus capable of realizing multi-resolution focused imaging provided by the present invention includes a computer software and hardware part, an ultrasonic guided wave excitation part, an ultrasonic guided wave receiving part, and a configurable ultrasonic guided wave transducer array.
The computer software and hardware part realizes the functions of calculating the frequency dispersion characteristic of the ultrasonic guided wave, controlling the generation and the receiving of the ultrasonic guided wave signals of each channel, configuring the working mode of each channel of the ultrasonic guided wave transducer array, processing the ultrasonic guided wave multi-resolution focused image and the like.
The ultrasonic guided wave excitation part comprises a signal generation module and a power amplification module. The signal generating module generates a sine pulse signal under the control of a computer, and the sine pulse signal is amplified into a power signal which can be applied to the ultrasonic guided wave transducer through the power amplifying module.

The configurable ultrasonic guided wave transducer array comprises a matrix switch and an ultrasonic guided wave transducer array, and the ultrasonic guided wave transducer array can be configured into a low-frequency rapid scanning mode and a high-frequency fine detailed scanning mode by configuring the matrix switch through a computer.
As shown in fig. 5, the ultrasonic guided wave transducer according to the present invention is based on the magnetostrictive principle, and has a structure including, from the outside to the inside, a coil layer, a magnetostrictive transducer sheet layer, and an epoxy resin coupling layer in this order. The excitation magnetic field generated by the coil layer is orthogonal to the pre-magnetization magnetic field of the magnetostrictive transducer layer, SH0 mode ultrasonic guided waves are formed on the magnetostrictive transducer layer by the Wednman effect, and the ultrasonic guided waves are coupled to the pipeline through the epoxy resin coupling layer. The ultrasonic guided wave transducers are uniformly distributed on the circumference of the pipeline to form an ultrasonic guided wave transducer array.
As shown in fig. 6, the coil layer of the ultrasonic guided wave transducer according to the present invention is configured with a matrix switch to switch between a low-frequency fast scanning mode and a high-frequency fine scanning mode. The width of a basic transduction unit of the ultrasonic guided wave transducer is fixed to be a quarter wavelength, and because the speed of the ultrasonic guided wave in the SH0 mode does not change along with the frequency, if the low-frequency quick scanning frequency is half of the high-frequency fine detailed scanning frequency, the width of the basic transduction unit selected in the low-frequency quick scanning mode is twice as wide as the width of the basic transduction unit selected in the high-frequency fine detailed scanning mode.

When the matrix switch is configured in a high-frequency fine detail inspection mode, the coils of the unit 1, the unit 2, the unit 3 and the unit 4 respectively form basic transduction unit coils, and signals of the coils of the unit 1, the unit 2 and the unit 3 are respectively delayed for three-quarter periods, one-half periods and one-quarter periods relative to signals of the coils of the unit 4.

The low-frequency ultrasonic guided wave fast scanning image can roughly determine the position of the artificial defect, but the edge characteristics of the artificial defect are fuzzy.
As shown in fig. 8, the maximum value of the low-frequency fast scanning image signal is decreased to-6 dB as a threshold, the grids with the amplitude larger than the threshold in the low-frequency fast scanning image signal are retrieved for high-frequency fine detailed scanning, and the high-frequency ultrasonic guided wave fine detailed scanning result is superimposed to the grid region corresponding to the low-frequency ultrasonic guided wave fast scanning image to generate an ultrasonic guided wave multi-resolution focused image. The high-frequency fine detailed investigation frequency is 128kHz, each grid of the high-frequency fine detailed investigation region is thinned into 4 multiplied by 4 grids, and the ultrasonic guided waves are focused at the center of each thinned grid. Compared with a low-frequency ultrasonic guided wave rapid scanning image, the high-frequency ultrasonic guided wave fine detail scanning image has the advantage that the characterization capability of the defect edge is remarkably improved.
Therefore, the method for roughly positioning the defect through global fast low-frequency scanning, performing high-frequency fine detailed scanning in the defect region, and generating the ultrasonic guided wave multi-resolution focused image by combining the low-frequency fast scanning and high-frequency fine detailed scanning information solves the contradiction between the ultrasonic guided wave detection resolution and the detection efficiency, and has remarkable technical effects.
