Abstract: This thesis investigates the advancement of Acoustic emission (AE) monitoring techniques and analysis methods that could be applied in the field of Structural Health Monitoring (SHM), with an emphasis on the use of advanced AE techniques to detect and locate damage and their application on the monitoring of corrosion and Stress corrosion cracking (SCC) in complex metallic structures. The work was divided into three main areas of research, which are an investigation into using FE (Finite Element) generated delta-T mapping to locate experimental AE signals on complex structures, source location of AE signals generated by corrosion and an experimental investigation into SCC damage locations on a metallic specimen.
