چکیده

In this chapter, a Reconfigurable Ultrasonic Smart Sensor Platform (RUSSP) for real-time signal analysis and image processing is presented. The RUSSP is designed to facilitate the development and implementation of ultrasonic signal processing algorithms with embedded software and reconfigurable hardware. It provides the opportunity to explore the full design space including software only, hardware only, and hardware/software co-design architectures. Multiple case studies are investigated including real-time ultrasonic flaw detection, signal decomposition and parameter estimation on the RUSSP which hosts a Linux operating system and reconfigurable fabric.

A fuzzy approach to the evaluation of human factors in ultrasonic nondestructive examinations

Human factors are among the main elements affecting the reliability of nondestructive examinations (NDE). In a man-machine system, human reliability is affected by many factors (performance shaping factors) whose influence on reliability cannot be easily expressed quantitatively. This paper identifies and ranks 59 perform-ance shaping factors by using a fuzzy reasoning method and proposes a pro...
