Fourier Analysis of Ultrasonic TOFD Signals for Defect Detection in Austenitic Stainless Steel Welds
Non Destructive testing of structural materials is an important activity in many industries. Ultrasonic NDT is one such method widely used in this field. Pulse Echo and Through Transmission are conventional testing techniques which use reflected and transmitted sound energy respectively. But these techniques are highly dependent on defect orientation. Time of Flight Diffraction (TOFD) is a rece...
متن کاملInterval Dependant Thresholding based De-noising of Ultrasonic TOFD Signals from Austenitic Stainless Steel Welds
Austenitic stainless steel has structural values in almost all industries. It is one of the most widely used materials. Qualitative assessment of such important components is of greater importance in very sensitive applications such as nuclear reactor vessels. Ultrasonic based Time of Flight diffraction is a reliable technique in testing the materials for many types of defects in welds. Echo si...
متن کاملMeasurement of local creep properties in stainless steel welds
A high temperature measurement system for creep deformation based on the digital image correlation (DIC) technique is described. The new system is applied to study the behaviour of a multi-pass welded joint in a high temperature tensile test and a load controlled creep test at 545°C. Spatially resolved tensile properties and time dependent creep deformation properties across a thick section typ...
متن کاملImprovements in Ultrasonic Inspection of Resistance Spot welds
Resistance welding is an electrothermic process commonly used in Industry for joining sheet metal, particularly steel, in applications such as automobile bodies and chassis assemblies. The method is suitable for partial or total automation, and is very reliable. However, as with any process, problems can occur and inspection is therefore necessary. Although ultrasonic inspection of spot welds h...
متن کاملUltrasonic Testing of Spot Welds in the Automotive Industry
In the modern motorcar production, more than 300 deep-drawn sheet metal parts are joined together by more than 3,000 spot welds on each car body. To check the spot welds within the framework of the quality assurance, different nondestructive test methods are available in addition to the destructive methods (tear down test, metallographic inspection): the chipping test and the ultrasonic test, w...
