For enhancement of flaw detactability using array transducers, focusing of ultrasonic waves on a target in an inhomogeneous medium or through a complex geometry is important. But focusing can be strongly degraded by geometrical distortion of field radiated by the array transducers or by sound speed fluctuations in the propagating medium. In recent years, the time reversal technique has been proposed. Thus, in this paper, we describe the basic principal of the time reversal technique for focusing. Then, the implementation results of the time reversal technique for ultrasonic inspections using bulk waves and guided waves generated by array transducers are presented.

The scanning laser source (SLS) technique has been proposed recently as an effective way to investigate small surface-breaking defects, By monitoring the amplitude and frequency changes of the ultrasound generated as the SLS scans over a defect, the SLS technique has provided enhanced signal-to-noise performance compared to the traditional pitch-catch or pulse-echo ultrasonic methods, An extension of the SLS approach to map defects in microdevices is proposed by bringing both the generator and the receiver to the near-field scattering region of the defects, To facilitate near-field ultrasound measurement, silicon microcantilever probes are fabricated using microfabrication technique and their acoustical characteristics are investigated, Then, both the laser-generated ultrasonic source and the microcantilever probe are used to monitor near-field scattering by a surface-breaking defect.

An efficient technique fur the calculation of guided wave dispersion curves in composite pipes is presented. The technique uses a forward-calculating variational calculus approach rather than the guess and iterate process required when using the more traditional partial wave superposition technique. The formulation of each method is outlined and compared. The forward-calculating formulation is used to develop finite element software for dispersion curve calculation. Finally, the technique is used to calculate dispersion curves for several structures, including an isotropic bar, two multi-layer composite bars, and a composite pipe.

Some techniques developed recently for sizing smalt fatigue cracks are described. One is an ultrasonic technique which deals with a small closed crack, where both the stress closing the crack and the crack size are determined by analyzing inverse problem. Here, difficulties encountered in NDE of closed cracks by usual ultrasonic techniques are summarized in advance. Secondly, the closely coupled probes potential drop (CCPPD) technique, which is based on d-c potential drop measurement, is explained fur sizing small cracks. The CCPPD technique is not affected by crack closure. Finally, a discussion is given on NDE of materials degradation in conjunction with sensitive NDE of small cracks.

본 연구에서는 Al-Si 합금 열간단조품 내부 판상 결함을 탐지하기 위한 초음파평가 기법을 확립하였다. 이를 위하여 내부에 존재하는 여러 가지 판상 결함의 초음파 특성을 실험적으로 구하였으며, 펄스-반사법을 적용하여 초음파 탐상신호에 대한 내부 판상 결함의 각도 등이 초음파 수신신호의 형태에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 한편 결함위치에 따른 초음파 신호특성을 규명하기 위하여 단조품 가장자리 부위에 존재하는 내부 판상 결함의 초음파 수신신호 특성을 평가하였으며, 본 시험편에 대한 초음파 투과법 적용 한계에 대하여 고찰하였다. 나아가 500개 이상의 파단 실험을 통해 제시된 초음파 평가기법의 신뢰성을 확인하였다.

The contact resistivity was correlated with IFSS and microfailure modes in conductive fiber/cement composites electro-pullout and AE. As IFSS increased, the number of AE signals increased and the contact resistivity increased latter to the infinity. In dual matrix composite (DMC) test and AE, the number of signals with high amplitude and energy in g]ass fiber composite is significantly larger than that of no-fiber composite. Many vertical and diagonal cracks were observed in glass fiber and no-fiber composite under tensile test, respectively. Electro-micromechanical technique and AE can be used efficiently for sensitive nondestructive (NDT) evaluation and to detect microfailure mechanisms in various conductive fibers reinforced brittle and nontransparent cement composites.

A hybrid composite material has many potential usage due to the high specific strength and the resistance to fatigue, when compared to other composite materials such as fiber reinforced plastic(FRP) and metal matrix composite(MMC). However, the fracture mechanism of hybrid composite material is extremely complicated because of the bonding structure of metals and FRP. In this study, Al 7075 sheets and carbon epoxy preprags were used to fabricate the hybrid composite. Recently, nondestructive technique has been used to evaluate the fracture mechanism of these composite materials. AE technique was used to clarify the microscopic damage behavior and failure mechanism of A17075/CFRP hybrid composite. It was found that AE paralneters such as AE event, energy and amplitude were effective to evaluate the failure process of Al 7075/CFRP composite. In addition, the relationship between the AE signal and the characteristics of fracture surface using optical microscope was discussed.

신경망 기반의 신호 분류 시스템은 비파괴 검사 시 추출되는 많은 양의 데이터를 처리하기 위한 방법으로 꾸준히 이용되고 있다. 비파괴검사 방법 중, 초음파 탐상법은 용접 지역에서 결함들을 찾기 위하여 비파괴 검사에서 일반적으로 사용되고 있는 추세다. 초음파 탐상법의 중요한 특징은 특정 신호에서 발생하는 불연속성을 판별해내는 능력이다. 지금까지의 보편화되어 있는 기술은 신호를 분류하기 위해 각각의 A-scan 신호를 처리하는 반면 본 논문에서는 이웃하는 A-scan 신호의 정보를 기반으로 하는 2차원 푸리에 변환(Fourier transform)과 주성분 분석(principal component analysis) 기법을 이용하여 특징 벡터를 추출, 분류하는 방법을 제시하고자 한다.

This work is aimed to explore a possibility of using the generalized Lamb waves for nondestructive evaluation of the bonding quality of layered substrates. For this purpose, we prepared two sets of specimens with imperfect bonding at their interfaces; 1) TiN-coated specimens with various wear conditions, and 2) CVD diamond specimens with various cleaning conditions. A dispersion simulation performed for layered substrates with imperfect interfaces are carried out to get the characteristics of dispersion curves that can be used for bonding quality evaluation. Then the characteristics of dispersion curves of the fabricated specimens are experimentally determined by use of an ultrasonic backward radiation measurement technique. The results obtained in the present study show that the lowest velocity mode (Rayleigh-like) of the generalized Lamb waves are sensitively affected by the bonding quality. Therefore, the generalized Lamb waves can be applied for nondestructive evaluation of imperfect bonding quality in various layered substrates.

Nondestructive evaluation (NDE) technique method using a resonance frequency mode was carried out for woodceramics made by different phenol resin impregnation ratios (40, 50, 60, 70%) for Broussonetia Kazinoki Sieb. Dynamic modulus of elasticity increased with increasing resin impregnation ratios. There was a close relationship between dynamic modulus of elasticity and static bending modulus of elasticity and between dynamic modulus of elasticity and MOR and between static bending modulus of elasticity and MOR. Therefore, the dynamic modulus of elasticity using resonance frequency mode is useful as a nondestructive evaluation method for predicting the MOR of woodceramics made by different impregnation ratios.
