Backside defect of plate structure may grow due to fatigue or overload to cause critical failure during operation, so it is important to detect this kind of defect in line. For this purpose, nondestructive, non-contact and highly sensitive method is required. ESPI and Shearography are considered as useful method to satisfy these requirements. In this paper, the possibility of application of ESPI and Shearography to detect the backside defect of steel plate and to quantify the defect size was tested. For the experiment, some steel plates with defect on the backside were prepared. Experimental results for these plates showed that location and size of defect could be detected correctly by both of ESPI and Shearography.

The results of source location in terms of AE signal occurred by the spot exciting as suggested in this research, it has been confirmed that AE technique is quite fruitful in figuring out the location of the occurrence, form, size and direction of the defects. Thus, it is expected that the application of the experimental method suggested in this study would make it possible to identify, in the nondestructive way, the location of the defect in the material.

Welding defects affect the performance of welded pipe joints. In this study, a three point bend test of welded steel and medium density polyethylene (MDPE) pipe joints with defects of various defect locations and defect materials was studied using the finite element method. The defect was assumed to be located at 12 o'clock, 3 o'clock or 6 o'clock direction. The results showed that pipes failed more easily on the compression side due to stress or local buckling. The air defect was more dangerous than the steel defect if the defect was located in the compression side; otherwise, the defect material effect on the integrity of pipes was ignorable. It is argued that the integrity of pipes with defects in the compression side is weaker than that in other regions, and the defect should be located in the compression side or the 12 o'clock position in the three point bend test to maximize the effect of defect existence on the pipe structural integrity.

Photonic crystal (PC) has special interests for their promising applications in three-dimensional photon control and integrated devices. In a nonlinear photonic crystal (NPC), optical intensity in a defect layer is greatly increased due to the location function of NPC and nonlinearity. The nonliearity of the defect layer is very much enhanced because the group velocity is reduced and the interaction time between light and nonlinear medium in the defect layer is enlarged. (omitted)

The aim of this paper is to develop a novel method to determine the severity of a damage in a thin plate. This paper presents a novel fault detection and diagnosis approach employing a new electromagnetic acoustic transducer, called EMAT, together with a complex signal processing method. The method consists in the recognition of a fault that exists within the structure, the fault location, i.e. the identification of the geometric position of damage, and the determining the significance of the damage, which indicates the importance or severity of the defect. The main scientific novelties presented in this paper is: to develop of a new type of electromagnetic acoustic transducer; to incorporate wavelet transforms for signal representation enhancements; to investigate multi-parametric analysis for noise identification and defect classification; to study attenuation curves properties for defect localization improvement; flaw sizing and location algorithm development.

Background/Aims: Endoscopic vacuum therapy (EVT) can heal a variety of defects within the gastrointestinal (GI) tract via applying negative pressure, which reduces the defect size, aspirates the infected fluid, and promotes granulation tissue. Here we present our experience with EVT as it relates to both spontaneous and iatrogenic upper GI tract perforations, leaks, and fistulas. Methods: This retrospective study was conducted at four large hospital centers. All patients who underwent EVT between June 2018 and March 2021 were included. Data on multiple variables were collected, including demographics, defect size and location, number and intervals of EVT exchanges, technical success, and hospital length of stay. Student t-test and the chi-squared test were used to analyze the data. Results: Twenty patients underwent EVT. The most common defect cause was spontaneous esophageal perforation (50%). The most common defect location was the distal esophagus (55%). The success rate was 80%. Seven patients were treated with EVT as the primary closure method. The mean number of exchanges was five with a mean interval of 4.3 days between exchanges. The mean length of hospital stay was 55.8 days. Conclusions: EVT is a safe and effective initial management option for esophageal leaks and perforations.

Infrared thermography was used to determine the location, size, and depth of defects under the surface of M.C nylon. Defects were created in a specimen by back-drilling circular holes. These defects were located at the maximum temperature difference that occurred. The sizes of the defects could be calculated by means of the full width at half of the maximum temperature difference. The depth of a defect could be calculated by the peak time and the maximum temperature difference. The maximum temperature difference between a defect and normal part was decreased with the depth of the defect. And the peak time also slowly appeared with the depth of the defect.

This study analyzed the actual use of defect deposits for financing long-term expenses (that is, expenses incurred within 4-10 years of building completion) and for financing short-term expenses (that is, expenses incurred within 3 years of building completion). Therefore, 36 cost data on the expenses financed out of defect deposits for apartment complexes were collected from construction companies and analyzed using statistical methods. The findings revealed that 62.6 percent of defect deposits were spent to resolve actual defects, and 37.4 percent were spent resolving resident complaints. Furthermore, these results are valid regardless of the location of the complexes. As such, these results could be of significance when establishing or revising regulations regarding the repair of the long-term defects of apartment complexes.

Developmental salivary gland defect is a bone depression on the lingual surface of the mandible containing salivary gland or fatty soft tissue. The most common location is within the submandibular gland fossa and often close to the inferior border of the mandible. This defect is asymptomatic and generally discovered only incidentally during radiographic examination of the area. This defect also appears as a well-defined, corticated, unilocular radiolucency below the mandibular canal. Although it is not uncommon for this defect to appear as a round or ovoid radiolucency, multilocular radiolucency of these defects is relatively rare. This report presents a case of a developmental salivary gland defect with multilocular radiolucency in a male patient.

The continuum model of transient point defect dynamics to predict the concentrations of interstitial and vacancy is established by estimating expressions for the thermophysical properties of intrinsic point defects. And the point defect distribution in a Czochralski-grown 200 mm silicon crystal and the location of oxidation-induced stacking fault ring(OiSF-ring) created during the cooling of crystals are calculated by using the numerical analysis. The purpose of this paper is to show that his approach lead to predictions that are consistent with experimental results. Predicted point defect distributions by transient point defect dynamic analysis are in good qualitative agreement with experimental data under widely and abruptly varying crystal pull rates when correlated with the position of the OiSF-ring .
