Model specimens are fabricated to obtain expected damage mechanisms during tensile testing. Then, relationship among AE descriptors is studied by hierarchical cluster analysis, and AE signals are classified by k-means algorithm. Finally, an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is created and trained by various optimal algorithms to identify damage mechanisms. The results reveal that typical damage mechanisms in PE self-reinforced composite can be classified in terms of the similarity between AE signals and identified by a well trained ANN.}, issn = {2617-8699}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.3993/jfbi09201206}, url = {https://global-sci.com/article/86759/investigation-on-damage-mechanisms-of-pe-self-reinforced-composites-by-acoustic-emission-technology} }
