• acoustic emission signature (signature)- see signature, acoustic emission.<br />

•<br />

• acoustic emission transducer- see sensor, acoustic emission.<br />

• <strong>Acoustic</strong> emission waveguide- see waveguide, acoustic emission.<br />

• acousto-Ultrasonics (AU)- a nondestructive examination method that uses<br />

induced stress waves to detect and assess diffuse defect states, damage<br />

conditions, and variations of mechanical properties of a test structure. The<br />

AU method combines aspects of acoustic emission (AE) signal analysis<br />

with ultrasonic materials characterization techniques.<br />

• adaptive location- source location by iterative 反 复 的 use of simulated<br />

sources in combination with computed location.<br />

• AE activity, n- the presence of acoustic emission during a test.<br />

• AE amplitude- See dB AE .<br />
