시험체의 두께나 초음파 속도를 측정하기 위해서 초음파 펄스-에코법이 널리 사용되고 있다. 초음파 속도를 결정하기 위해서는 초음파 송수신 장치를 포함한 오실로스코우프와 같은 초음파 측정 장치를 사용하여 시험편에서의 초음파진행 시간을 측정하고, 초음파 진행 거리에 해당하는 시험편의 두께를 버어니어 캘리퍼스 또는 마이크로미터와 같은 길이측정 도구를 사용하여 측정한다. 그리고 초음파를 이용하여 시험편의 두께를 측정할 때에는 초음파 속도를 알고 있는 대비 시험편으로 기준을 설정하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는, 대비 시험편 없이 재료의 두께와 초음파 속도를 동시에 구하는 방법을 제시하였다. 재질과 두께를 달리한 여러 시험편에서 측정된 초음파 속도와 두께가 기존의 방법에 의해 측정한 값과 잘 일치하였다.

In this paper, we present an ultrasonic velocity and attenuation measurement system. There are many ultrasonic measurement methods that are used in nondestructive testing applications. They include material property determination, microstructural characterization, and flaw detection. Ultrasonic parameters such as velocity and attenuation are most commonly used in them. Advanced signal analysis which is called "ime-frequency analysis"has been used widely in nondestructive evaluation applications. Wavelet transform is the most advanced technique for processing signals with time-varying spectra. Using the echo waveform gathered by the designed hardware system, we performed simulation of the signal processing algorithms. Then the algorithm is implemented on the system.

Computer-aided high frequency ultrasonic is applied to aluminum oxide(85w%, 94w%, 96w%, and 99w%) MOR(modulus of rupture) samples to evaluate mechanical properties such as density variation, pore content, elastic modulus, shear modulus, and poisson's ratio. Ultrasonic wave velocity and attenuation measurement techniques were used as an evaluator of such properties. Pulse-echo C-Scan images with different fate setting method using 50MHz center frequency 1 inch focal length transducer allows evaluation of density variation and pore content. Elastic modulus calculated with the relation of density and ultrasonic velocity. It shows good reliability as compared with resonance method. Sintered density variation of $0.025g/cm^{3}$, that is 0.6% of theoretical density in $Al_{2}O_{3}$ samples can be observed by ultrasonic velocity measurement. Attenuation measurement method qualitatively agree with 4-point fracture testing result concerning of porosity content.

Measurement of the strength of concrete is an important indicator of the safety of the fresh as well as old concrete structures. It is possible to evaluate the strength of the concrete by means of an ultrasonic velocity method which is a kind of non-destructive inspection method for safety diagnostic evaluation of the building structures with aging. Steel embedded in the concrete and age of the concrete may affect ultrasonic pulse velocity. In order to accurately assess the strength of the concrete, it is necessary to understand rebar embedded in the concrete, steel shapes in various forms which effect ultrasonic pulse velocity. In this study, by measuring the velocity of ultrasonic waves generated when the waves pass through the ultrasonic pulse in a direction perpendicular to the reinforcing bars embedded in concrete, the effect of reinforcing bars on ultrasonic velocity accurately was verified and used to estimate the strength of the concrete.

The paper deals with an ultrasonic transducer invented for measuring both flow velocity and pipe thickness. The structure of the transducer is based on the conventional transducers for measuring flow velocity by obliquely transmitting ultrasonic waves to the flow direction. The transducer additionally generates ultrasonic waves transmitting vertically to a pipe for measuring pipe thickness. By measuring flow velocity with the invented transducer and a conventional oblique-incidence transducer and comparing their results, the accuracy of the flow velocity measurement of the invented one was evaluated. By measuring specimen thickness with the invented transducer and a conventional normal-incidence transducer and comparing their results, the accuracy of the thickness measurement of the invented one was evaluated.

The potential use of ultrasonic technique for firmness measurement of apples was evaluated. Mechanical properties(bioyield deformation, bioyield strength, rupture deformation, ultimate strength, and elastic modulus) and ultrasonic parameters (ultrasonic velocity, attenuation coefficient and the first peak frequency) of the apple flesh during the storage time were measured and analyzed. Ultrasonic parameters were determined from the measurement of ultrasonic wave transmission through the apple flesh specimen. Mechanical properties were obtained by universal testing machine. The bioyield strength, rupture strength, elastic modulus, ultrasonic velocity, and the first peak frequency of the apple flesh decreased with the storage time. The bioyield deformation, rupture deformation, and ultrasonic attenuation coefficient increased with the storage time. The correlation analysis between ultrasonic parameters and mechanical properties and the storage time was performed. The high correlations were found between the storage time and the ultrasonic parameters, and these relationships seem to be useful for determining the firmness of the apple flesh.

초음파 속도를 이용하여 다양한 종류의 주철에 대해 미세구조와 품질 특성을 평가하였다. 상용으로 사용되는 3종의 회주철 및 3종의 구상흑연주철을 준비하였으며, 열처리 미세구조의 영향을 평가하기 위해 구상흑연주철을 어닐링 열처리를 다르게 하여 시편을 준비하였다. 초음파 전파 속도 측정, 미세구조(펄라이트 분율, 흑연의 길이 및 구상화율) 정량화, 경도 측정을 행하여 이들 파라미터 사이의 경험적 상관관계를 확인하였다. 구상흑연주철의 초음파 전파 속도가 회주철에서의 속도보다 크게 나타났다. 구상흑연주철에서 펄라이트 미세조직의 분율이 감소할수록 경도 및 초음파 속도는 감소하였다. 초음파 속도를 주철 소재의 품질관리를 위한 비파괴평가 파라미터로서 사용할 수 있는 가능성을 보여주었다.

Multi-path ultrasonic Sow measurement system uncertainty is determined by assigning an expected error of each component of flow measurement and then defining the total flow measurement uncertainty as square root of the sum of squared values of the individual error. Sources of uncertainty for flow measurement are geometry, transit time and velocity profile integration uncertainty. A theoretical uncertainty model for multi-path ultrasonic transit time flowmeter configured with parallel 5 chords, is derived from and calculated by dry calibration method.

The paper deals with improvement of a piezoelectric ultrasonic transducer for measuring both pipe thickness and flow velocity. The transducer structure is based on the conventional transducers for measuring flow velocity by obliquely transmitting ultrasonic waves to the flow direction. The transducer invented earlier for measuring flow velocity and pipe thickness had an advantage of including only one piezoelectric disc, but for the thickness measurement the ultrasonic wave had to be reflected twice in a wedge material to be transmitted vertically to a pipe, and thus the wave signal was too weak. The transducer has been improved to transmit waves for thickness measurement vertically to a pipe without any prior reflection by electrically connecting two piezoelectric discs, one for flow velocity and the other for pipe thickness measurement. By comparing the measured results of specimen thickness with the improved transducer and conventional transducers, the accuracies of the improved one have been evaluated in the pipe thickness measurements.

In this paper, the location measurement method for the reliable location data using ultrasonic sensors is proposed for the dimming control of the LED flat lamp. The measurement errors depending on the reflection angle of the object have to be considered to obtain the reliable location data in the ultrasonic sensors. In the experiment, the cause of the measurement errors depending on reflection angle is analyzed and velocity change of ultrasonic wave depending on reflection angle is measured. And the location measurement method depending on velocity change of ultrasonic wave is proposed. From the results, the average absolute deviation of the x-coordinates was 1.47cm when the location measurement method was considered, and it was closer to the true values than the average absolute deviation of the x-coordinates which was 5.89cm without regard to the reflection angle.
