New Ultrasonic Guided Wave Testing using Remote Excitation of Trapped Energy Mode
Ultrasonic guided waves have been used in testing of such an elongated object as pipe. Its sensitivity and distance resolution, however, have been limited by velocity dispersion and interference of numerous propagation modes of guided waves. Trapped energy mode of vibration of thickness shear waves in a quartz plate has been widely used in frequency control and selection due to its high Q and l...
متن کاملAn Ultrasonic Guided Wave Method to Estimate Applied Biaxial Loads
ABSTRACT. Guided waves propagating in a homogeneous plate are known to be sensitive to both temperature changes and applied stress variations. Here we consider the inverse problem of recovering homogeneous biaxial stresses from measured changes in phase velocity at multiple propagation directions using a single mode at a specific frequency. Although there is no closed form solution relating pha...
متن کاملUltrasonic Guided Wave Methods for the Materials Characterization and Defect Detection
Laser ultrasonic sources and guided wave sensing methods, using sub-wavelength miniature sensors, are utilized to nondestructively evaluate composite materials. These methods enable in-plane characterization of the ultrasonic signals directional velocities. Additionally, sensing of the guided wave modes changes, in the geometrically complex composite structures, enables detection of the materia...
متن کاملDesign and Implementation of an Electronic Front-End Based on Square Wave Excitation for Ultrasonic Torsional Guided Wave Viscosity Sensor
The market for process instruments generally requires low cost devices that are robust, small in size, portable, and usable in-plant. Ultrasonic torsional guided wave sensors have received much attention by researchers for measurement of viscosity and/or density of fluids in recent years. The supporting electronic systems for these sensors providing many different settings of sine-wave signals ...
متن کاملDefect detection for aircraft components: An approach using ultrasonic guided waves and neural networks
Ultrasonic Guided Wave (UGW) techniques have become significant tools for the application of Non-Destructive Testing (NDT). Their ability to propagate within a structure for large distances is a key feature. In the case of structures with relatively simple geometries, such as pipes, the inspector's analysis of received reflections of the excited waves can highlight defective areas of the struct...
