Localization by Acoustic Emission in Transversely Isotropic Slate

Figure 8

(a) Sensor configuration (S1 to S4) for a uniaxial compressive test on a slate sample. The parallel lines represent the orientation of schistosity (20°). Each centre of a sensor is positioned at 5 mm of the nearest edge. (b) Slate sample B02. Positions calculated by 3D localization within the -plane (left) and the -plane (right). Circles and squares point out prepeak, respectively, postpeak hits.
