Despite its longstanding use, the definition of “acoustic emission” has been a source of controversy for the last fifty years. Strictly, “acoustic” refers to the pressure waves detected by one’s ear. However, elastic waves in solids are not limited to pressure waves, and all types of vibrational modes are generated by acoustic emission sources. Even so, the term “acoustic emission” has become almost universally used for the phenomena of elastic waves generated by an internal event in a media. In this monograph, “acoustic” will refer to any elastic wave generated by an acoustic emission source. <strong>Acoustic</strong> emission, then, is the generation of an elastic wave by the rapid change in the stress state of some region in the material. This change is usually caused by the application of an external stimulus to the material. The material can be a solid, liquid, gas or plasma and the external stress (?) can be applied mechanically, thermally, magnetically, etc. Charlie Chong/ Fion Zhang
The stress change must be rapid enough to transmit some energy to the surrounding material and dissipates as an elastic wave. On a macroscopic scale this definition includes earthquakes and thunder, while on a microscopic scale it includes the fracture of crystallites and Martensitic phase transformations. The occurrence of the burst of energy is completely determined by the local conditions, the local stress field, and the physical state of the region. As a result, neither the exact time when the energy burst occurs nor the exact details of the generated wave can be determined beforehand. In general, the event generating the emission is irreversible; neither a ruptured geologic fault nor a fractured crystallite in a metal plate will heal spontaneously. Charlie Chong/ Fion Zhang
