Abstract
According to an embodiment, a structure evaluation system includes a plurality of sensors, a position locator, and an evaluator. The sensors detect an elastic wave generated from a structure. The position locator derives a source distribution of the elastic waves generated from the structure, caused by an impact on the structure. The evaluator evaluates a state of deterioration of the structure from characteristic parameters of the elastic waves in the source distribution.
