Ultrasonic Imaging of Concrete by Synthetic Aperture Focusing Technique Based on Hilbert-Huang Transform of Time Domain Data
For non-destructive evaluation (NDE) of concrete, efficient and accurate imaging techniques are needed for a reliable evaluation of safety and serviceability of structures. Imaging of concrete structures is considered a very challenging task since it is a non-homogeneous material. In this paper, the acoustic (stress wave) technique was applied by using Ultrasonics and Synthetic Aperture Focusin...
متن کاملA Modified Synthetic Aperture Focusing Technique (SAFT) by the Hilbert-Huang Transform (HHT)
Combing the stress wave signals with Synthetic Aperture Focusing Technique (SAFT) to inspect and image the interior defect of concrete structural has shown its feasibility by some researchers. However, some bright zones displayed in the image plot are not corresponding to the Rayleigh waves and reflection signals from the bottom surface of the structural component or the embedded defect. This t...
متن کاملSynthetic aperture focusing techniques for ultrasonic imaging of solid objects
Synthetic aperture focusing technique (SAFT) has been used in non-destructive testing mainly in its simplest form that mimics acoustic lenses used for focusing ultrasonic beams at a point of a solid object or structure. This paper presents a review of SAFT algorithms applied for post-processing of ultrasonic data acquired in non-destructive inspection of metals. The performance of SAFT in terms...
متن کاملUltrasonic Phased Array and Synthetic Aperture Imaging in Concrete
For ultrasound in the hundred kilohertz regime concrete is a very inhomogeneous propagation material. The prescribed definition of aggregates with regard to the respective percentage, the size distribution and the material composition together with the percentage of air inclusions can be realized as a computer model to serve as a platform for elastic wave propagation simulations. As a simulatio...
متن کاملPhotoacoustic microscopy by scanning mirror-based synthetic aperture focusing technique
Photoacoustic imaging with a synthetic aperture focusing technique (SAFT) is an effective method to improve the lateral resolution for out-of-focus regions in scanning microscopy systems, which commonly require a decent motorized scanning stage for a lateral scan of a transducer to obtain a cross-sectional image. In this study, we propose and test a photoacoustic imaging system with a scanning ...
