description This paper addresses the issue of detecting welding defects in steel plates during the welding process by proposing a method that combines the laser vibrometer with transient feature extraction technology. The method employs a high-resolution laser vibrometer to collect vibration signals from excited weld plates, followed by feature extraction and analysis for defect detection and identification. The focus of the research is on the optimization and application of the transient extraction transform algorithm, which plays a crucial role in signal feature extraction for defect recognition. By optimizing the short-time Fourier transform, we further propose the use of the transient extraction transform algorithm to effectively characterize and extract transient components from defect signals. To validate the proposed algorithm, we compare the defect recognition performance of several algorithms using quantitative metrics such as Rényi entropy and kurtosis. The results indicate that the proposed method yields a more centralized time–frequency representation and significantly increases the kurtosis of transient components, providing a new approach for detecting welding defects in steel plates.
