Stress in laser cladding coating is an important factor affecting the safe operation of remanufacturing components. Ultrasonic testing has become a popular approach in the nondestructive evaluation of stress, because it has the advantages of safety, nondestructiveness, and online detection. This paper provides a review of ultrasonic testing for stress in remanufacturing laser cladding coating. ...

A method is presented based on tomographic reconstruction techniques for the visualization of an ultrasonic field. The tall, narrow piezoelectric elements of a one-dimensional receiving array, rotated about its central axis, provide parallel projection input data for tomographic reconstruction of the field. The technique is demonstrated using simulated ultrasonic beams and experimental measurem...

Polymer Bonded Explosives (PBX) are well-known explosives for the weapons, especially for the parts of some important weapon. Generally, they first are modelled in cylinder. One of the most important issues in PBX cylinder properties is the detection of its flaw. Each PBX cylinder may have flaws that influence the security, machine-performance and other important physical or chemical performanc...

The knowledge of the thermal shock resistance of refractory materials is of outmost importance since it determines their performance in many applications, from ceramic manufacturing to oil refinery, thermal insulation, nuclear power, chemical and petrochemical industries. Thermal shock resistance is measured in terms of the number of cycles that a refractory material can withstand when subjecte...

In this article, embedded ultrasonic sensors were prepared using 1–3-type piezoelectric composite and piezoelectric ceramic as the piezoelectric elements, respectively. The frequency bandwidth of the novel embedded ultrasonic sensors was investigated. To obtain the relationship between the receiving ultrasonic velocity and compressive strength, as well as their response signals to crack damage,...

Ultrasonic imaging has applications in many industries, such as non destructive testing, medical imaging, and industrial applications. Previous research into ultrasonic imaging has focused on offline processing of echo data. A topic of increasing interest is real-time processing of ultrasonic data. Due to the microstructure of materials the echo signal contains a high amount of clutter noise. I...

Non-Destructive testing is useful in rail, pipeline and aerospace industries for maintenance of equipment, such as thickness measurements, corrosion and defect detection in materials. In this work a finite element analysis of an Electromagnetic acoustic transducer is presented. EMAT is an emerging technology that provides a non contact process of testing materials compared to ultrasonic sensors...

Non-destructive testing (NDT) of engineering materials, components and structures has steadily increased in recent years at an unprecedented rate because of all-round thrust for improving material quality, component integrity and performance reliability. Ultrasonic testing is a versatile NDT method, which is applicable to most materials, metallic or non-metallic. The relevance of computed tomog...
