Deconvolution Procedure for Crack Depth Determination Using Rayleigh Waves
This paper describes a method for determining the depth of machined slots simulating cracks by the use of Rayleigh waves. Six slots varying in depth from 0.5 mm to 3.0 mm fabricated in medium carbon steel have been sized using a commercially available 1.5 MHz Rayleigh wave transducer. One measurement using the pulse-echo method is made for determining the depth of the crack. Minima in the decon...
متن کاملSupershear Rayleigh waves at a soft interface.
We report on the experimental observation of waves at a liquid foam surface propagating faster than the bulk shear waves. The existence of such waves has long been debated, but the recent observation of supershear events in a geophysical context has inspired us to search for their existence in a model viscoelastic system. An optimized fast profilometry technique allows us to observe on a liquid...
متن کاملWater waves as a spatial dynamical system; infinite depth case.
We review the mathematical results on traveling waves in one or several superposed layers of potential flow, subject to gravity, with or without surface and interfacial tension, where the bottom layer is infinitely deep. The problem is formulated as a "spatial dynamical system," and it is shown that the linearized operator of the resulting reversible system has an essential spectrum filling the...
متن کاملRayleigh Waves
The table of source phase differences between Rayle igh and Love waves which was described in Pa r t I and used in Pa r t 2 is presented in a concise form for the case of a surface focus.
متن کاملLocalization of Rayleigh waves
We study the localization of Rayleigh waves propagating in a semi-infinite and isotropic medium with inhomogeneities that are modeled as rods parallel to the incoming wave front and are distributed randomly up to a maximum depth. For a perfectly smooth surface, the localization length of a Rayleigh wave is predicted to reach a minimum at intermediate wavelength l and to diverge for both low and...
