In the study, based on the model of acoustic emission during the destruction of a composite material by shear force according to the Von Mises criterion, the effect of non-uniformity of the destruction process on the generated acoustic emission signal is simulated. The study under the accepted modeling conditions allows us to determine the patterns of changes in the amplitude envelope of acoustic emission signals at various stages of developing processes. In theoretical and experimental studies of acoustic emission signals when searching for patterns in their parameter changes and developing methods for monitoring or diagnosing the state of composite materials, the problem lies in the interpretation of recorded information. This issue arises from the complexity and diversity of processes occurring in the material structure at micro and macro levels, and the high sensitivity of the acoustic emission method to these processes, wherein structural changes lead to observable alterations in the characteristics of acoustic emissions. Solving this problem requires both theoretical and experimental studies to understand the influence of various factors on the characteristics of the generated acoustic emission. The results of the presented study can be used to assess the condition of composite materials and structures, such as bridges, e.g., in terms of defectiveness, property dispersion, damage during operation, and other characteristics.
