| Summary: | In the paper two types of numerical models of the self-excited acoustical system are presented. This new type of auto-oscillating system is used for stress change measurement in constructions and rock masses. The essence of the self-excited acoustical system is to use a vibration emitter and vibration receiver placed at a distance, which are coupled with a proper power amplifier, and which are operating in a closed loop with a positive feedback. This causes the excitation of the system. The change of the velocity of wave propagation, which is associated with the change of the resonance frequency in the system is caused by the deformation of the examined material. Stress changes manifest themselves in small but detectable variations of frequency. The first of the presented models was created on the basis of estimating the model parameters by identification of the sensor–conditioner–amplifier–emitter system. The second mathematical model was delivered from the force–charge equation of the piezoelectric transducers: the sensor and the emitter. The model of the loaded beam, which determined the response of any beam point to the force applied to any other beam point is also presented. |
