Summary: | Low strain detection, an indirect and nondestructive testing method, is one of the main pile integrity testing methods. We propose low strain testing analysis based on a synchrosqueezing wavelet transformation (SST). Through a typical model pile test, the SST is applied to identify pile bottom signal reflection time and to separate signal from noise. It is also compared with the conventional wavelet de-noising and the empirical mode decomposition (EMD) de-noising method. Results show that the SST technique can be used to identify the reflected signal of the pile bottom, achieve signal and noise separation, and improve signal-to-noise ratio. The method has significant advantage in low strain detection signal processing compared to other methods. |
