contents The layout of acoustic emission sensors plays a critical role in non-destructive structural testing. This study proposes a grid-based optimization method focused on multi-source location results, in contrast to traditional sensor layout optimization methods that construct a correlation matrix based on sensor layout and one source location. Based on the seismic source travel-time theory, the proposed method establishes a location objective function based on minimum travel-time differences, which is solved through the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. Furthermore, based on location accuracy across various configurations, the method systematically evaluates potential optimal sensor locations through grid search. Synthetic tests and laboratory pencil-lead break (PLB) experiments are conducted to compare the effectiveness of PSO, genetic algorithm, and simulated annealing, with the following conclusions: (1) In synthetic tests, the proposed method achieved an average location error of 1.78 mm, outperforming that based on the traditional layout, genetic algorithm (GA), and simulated annealing (SA). (2) For different noise cases, the location accuracy separately improved by 24.89% (σ=0.5μs), 12.59% (σ=2μs), and 15.06% (σ=5μs) compared with the traditional layout. (3) For the PLB experiments, the optimized layout achieved an average location error of 9.37 mm, which improved the location accuracy by 59.15% compared with the Traditional layout.
