Abstract

In this study, the elastomer cover, a new contact material, was developed to establish the customized ultrasonic measurement considering surface irregularities of stone cultural heritages. The cover exhibits high elastic force and wear resistance because it has tensile strength of 17MPa and elongation of 625%. In addition, as a result of comparative experiments for the seven types according to transducers and contact materials including the elastomer cover, rock surface irregularities significantly affect attenuation of ultrasonic velocity. The phenomenon was more noticeable in the chiseling finish and indirect transmission measurement rather than the dabbed finish and direct transmission measurement. However, the Type F using the exponential transducer and elastomer cover showed stable P-wave velocity and high amplitude regardless of the surface irregularities. This because the elastomer cover sufficiently sticks to surface irregularities and removes pores between a transducer and a rock specimen. Therefore, the Type F should be used for the ultrasonic measurement of stone cultural heritages with surface irregularities.

이 연구에서는 석조문화유산의 표면 요철도를 고려한 맞춤형 초음파 측정법을 설정하기 위해 새로운 접촉매질인 엘라스토머 커버를 개발하였다. 이 커버는 17MPa의 인장강도와 625%의 신장도를 가져 탄성력이 매우 우수하고 마모되지 않는 특징이 있다. 또한 엘라스토머 커버를 포함하여 탐촉자 및 접촉매질에 따른 7개 유형의 비교 실험 결과, 암석의 표면 거칠기는 초음파속도 감쇠에 많은 영향을 끼쳤다. 이러한 현상은 잔다듬에서 정다듬으로 갈수록, 직접전달방법보다는 간접전달방법에서 두드러졌다. 그러나 지수형 탐촉자와 엘라스토머 커버를 사용하는 유형 F는 요철도에 큰 상관없이 안정된 초음파속도와 높은 첨두치를 나타냈다. 이는 접촉매질로 사용한 엘라스토머 커버가 요철 표면에 충분히 밀착되어 탐촉자와 시편 사이의 공극을 제거했기 때문이다. 따라서 석조문화유산의 초음파 측정은 유형 F를 사용하는 것이 가장 적합할 것으로 판단된다.
