A MEMS Transducer for Ultrasonic Flaw Detection
Metal structures can fail because of fatigue crack propagation or because of section loss from corrosion. Regular inspection is required to intercept such failures, and in situ sensors would be a superior technology for that purpose. We have designed and fabricated arrays of MEMS capacitive diaphragm transducers and we report on their performance as pulse-echo detectors in direct contact with s...
متن کاملA MEMS Phased Array Transducer for Ultrasonic Flaw Detection
Metal structures can fail because of fatigue crack propagation or because of section loss from corrosion. Regular inspection is required to detect such failures. We report here progress toward the development of MEMS-based transducers for ultrasonic flaw detection, to be permanently mounted at critical locations on structures. In a complete system, a single piezoelectric element will be used to...
متن کاملExperiments in Ultrasonic Flaw Detection using a MEMS Transducer
In earlier work we developed a MEMS phased array transducer, fabricated in the MUMPs process, and we reported on initial experimental studies in which the device was affixed into contact with solids. We demonstrated the successful detection of signals from a conventional ultrasonic source, and the successful localization of the source in an off-axis geometry using phased array signal processing...
متن کاملDesign and Testing of a MEMS Ultrasonic Transducer for Flaw Detection
Ultrasonic pulse-echo methods are versatile, effective procedures for inspecting welds in steel structures. However, the ultrasonic methods conventionally used have two disadvantages: inspection must be performed manually by a skilled technician, and the signal obtained at the time of one inspection provides no “memory” to be used at the time of a later inspection. Our research involves the dev...
