Sumario:Measuring accurate wave velocity change is a crucial step in damage assessment of building materials such as rock and concrete. The anisotropy caused by the generation of cracks in the damage process and the uncertainty of the damage level of these building materials make it difficult to obtain accurate wave velocity change. We propose a new method to measure the wave velocity change of anisotropic media at any damage level by full-waveform correlation. In this method, the anisotropy caused by the generation of cracks in the damage process is considered. The accuracy of the improved method is verified by numerical simulation and compared with the existing methods. Finally, the proposed method is applied to measure the wave velocity change in the damage process of rock under uniaxial compression. We monitor the failure process of rock by acoustic emission (AE) monitoring system. Compared with the AE ringing count, the result of damage evaluation obtained by the proposed method is more accurate than the other two methods in the stage of increasing rock heterogeneity. These results show that the proposed method is feasible in damage assessment of building materials such as rock and concrete.
