Pulse compression technique applied to ultrasonic nondestructive testing of concrete
The pulse compression technique is successfully and widely used in many fields for improving the signal to noise ratio (SNR); which is especially useful when the environment is noisy and the SNR is poor. Since high frequency ultrasound is strongly attenuated in concrete, only low frequency ultrasound can be used in ultrasonic nondestructive testing (NDT) of concrete. In this study the pulse com...
متن کاملUltrasonic Nondestructive Testing Method for Evaluation of Annular Seals
Drilling boreholes is common practice in geotechnical and geoenvironmental investigations and in various other ex ploration, testing, and monitoring appli cations. When a casing is placed in a borehole an annular space is created be tween the casing and the surrounding soil. If not properly sealed, this annular space can be a potential path for trans port of contaminants in the subsurface e...
متن کاملUltrasonic Guided Wave Nondestructive Testing for Helicopter Rotor Blade
Ultrasonic guided waves are used to detect the delamination between skin and honeycomb of a composite helicopter rotor blade. Theoretical work is carried out for guided waves in the trailing edge of a rotor blade, which is a multilayer composite skin/NOMEX half space structure. The dispersion relation is obtained with the global matrix method. Theoretically driven experiments are conducted on a...
متن کاملA Sparse Reconstruction Algorithm for Ultrasonic Images in Nondestructive Testing
Ultrasound imaging systems (UIS) are essential tools in nondestructive testing (NDT). In general, the quality of images depends on two factors: system hardware features and image reconstruction algorithms. This paper presents a new image reconstruction algorithm for ultrasonic NDT. The algorithm reconstructs images from A-scan signals acquired by an ultrasonic imaging system with a monostatic t...
