Abstract:
For improving the analysis efficiency of simulation of detection defect in curved pipes using ultrasonic guided waves based on ANSYS software, a set of modules are designed with ANSYS parameter design language(APDL). The detection defect in curved pipes using guided waves can be simulated with the modules. Modeling, loading, and post-analysis can be performed by inputing concerned parameters, so the analysis efficiency can be greatly improved. The modules are verified by the consistency of the results between experiments and simulations.
