چکیده
This study proposes a portable long distance laser ultrasonic propagation imaging (LUPI) system with associated damage visualization algorithms based on anomalous wave propagation imaging (AWPI) methods with adjacent wave subtraction, reference wave subtraction, reference image subtraction, and the variable time window amplitude mapping (VTWAM) for a robust SHM solution.

High-resolution photoacoustic imaging with focused laser and ultrasonic beams.
We report a photoacoustic imager that utilizes a focused laser beam in combination with a 20 MHz ultrasound focusing transducer to obtain micron-resolution tissue images over a long working distance. The imager is based on a ring transducer that combines ultrasonic and laser beams collinearly and confocally in a monolithic element. The combination of focused laser beam and short pulse irradiati...
متن کاملLaser Ultrasonic Technique for Visualizing Ultrasonic Waves Propagating on 3-D Object
If it were possible to perform ultrasonic inspections while observing the propagation of ultrasonic waves as dynamic images, the identification of defect echoes would become easier, and inspection, quicker. Furthermore, fewer defects would be overlooked or improperly identified, leading to higher-reliability inspections. For visualizing ultrasonic propagation, we have developed a generation las...

In this study, a non-contact laser ultrasonic propagation imaging technique was applied to detect the damage of plate-like structures. Lamb waves were generated by an Nd:YAG pulse laser system, while a galvanometer-based laser scanner was used to scan the preliminarily designated area. The signals of the structural responses were measured using a piezoelectric sensor attached on the front or ba...
متن کاملLaser vibrometer measurement of guided wave modes in rail track.
The ability to measure the individual modes of propagation is very beneficial during the development of guided wave ultrasound based rail monitoring systems. Scanning laser vibrometers can measure the displacement at a number of measurement points on the surface of the rail track. A technique for estimating the amplitude of the individual modes of propagation from these measurements is presente...

Abstract For visualizing ultrasonic propagation, we have developed a generation laser scanning method. This method has the following features that make it superior to the conventional visualization methods such as the photo-elasticity method and the reception probe scanning method. (1) It enables us to visualize ultrasonic waves propagating on a complexly shaped object. (2) It makes high-speed ...
