This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Viele Industriezweige haben hohe Qualitätsansprüche an die verwendeten Materialien, was sich in den Anforderungen an die Untersuchungsverfahren dieser niederschlägt. Die Erkennung kleinster Fehler ist essentiell, wobei die Untersuchungsdauer, die Kosten und die Automatisierung der Prüfung an Bedeutung gewinnen. Die Zerstörungsfreie Prüfung (ZfP) bietet die Möglichkeit, das Innere eines Werkstückes zu charakterisieren, ohne es zu permanent zu beeinflussen. Ein kostengünstiges und flexibles bildgebendes Verfahren ist die Ultraschallprüfung. Dabei werden Ultraschallpulse in den Prüfkörper eingebracht, welche an Fehlerstellen wie z.B. Rissen oder Lufteinschlüssen aufgrund von akustischen Impedanzunterschieden zur Ausbildung von Echos führen. Die Echoamplitude hängt von der vom Ultraschallwandler eingestrahlten Energiemenge ab. Große Wandlergruppen (Arrays) bieten die Möglichkeit, mehr Energie in den Prüfling einzubringen. Damit geht die Verbesserung des Signal-Rausch-Verhältnis (SNR) und eine höhere Wahrscheinlichkeit bei der Erkennung kleinster Fehler einher. Zudem ermöglichen Arrays die Strahlfokussierung (beamforming) und die Strahlschwenkung (beam steering). Das Beamforming wird in kommerziellen Ultraschall-Prüfgeräten im digitalen Teil der Signalverarbeitung durchgeführt. Dafür werden schnelle, hochauflösende Analog-Digital-Wandler und eine leistungsfähige Signalverarbeitung benötigt, was zu steigender Hardwarekomplexität führt und die Leistungsfähigkeit der Verfahren einschränkt. Diese Restriktionen können durch Compressed Sensing umgangen werden. CS verfolgt die Idee direkt eine komprimierte Version von Signalen zu messen. Diese Masterarbeit untersucht die Anwendbarkeit von CS in mehrkanaligen Hardware-Architekturen für Ultraschallprüfung-ZfP. Aus Prinzipien und Umsetzungen von CS in der drahtlosen Kommunikation und RADAR wird eine Hardwarearchitektur abgeleitet. Es wird ein Framework in MATLAB implementiert. und Simulationen zur Verifizierung der Funktionsweise sowie zur Analyse der Performance des Konzeptes durchgeführt. Die Simulationen zeigen, dass drei implementierte Arten von Kompressionsmatrizen eine Datenreduktion um Faktor 20 mit nur vernachlässigbaren Einbußen der Rekonstruktionsqualität bei moderaten SNRs erreichen. Abschließend werden mögliche Verbesserungen und die zum Aufbau eines Prototypen notwendigen Schritte diskutiert.

Download or read book Ultrasonic and Advanced Methods for Nondestructive Testing and Material Characterization written by Chi-hau Chen and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2007 with total page 682 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ultrasonic methods have been very popular in nondestructive testing and characterization of materials. This book deals with both industrial ultrasound and medical ultrasound. The advantages of ultrasound include flexibility, low cost, in-line operation, and providing data in both signal and image formats for further analysis. The book devotes 11 chapters to ultrasonic methods. However, ultrasonic methods can be much less effective with some applications. So the book also has 14 chapters catering to other or advanced methods for nondestructive testing or material characterization. Topics like structural health monitoring, Terahertz methods, X-ray and thermography methods are presented. Besides different sensors for nondestructive testing, the book places much emphasis on signal/image processing and pattern recognition of the signals acquired.

This book was released on 2021 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book presents established methods of structural health monitoring (SHM) and discusses their technological merit in the current aerospace environment. While the aerospace industry aims for weight reduction to improve fuel efficiency, reduce environmental impact, and to decrease maintenance time and operating costs, aircraft structures are often designed and built heavier than required in order to accommodate unpredictable failure. A way to overcome this approach is the use of SHM systems to detect the presence of defects. This book covers all major contemporary aerospace-relevant SHM methods, from the basics of each method to the various defect types that SHM is required to detect to discussion of signal processing developments alongside considerations of aerospace safety requirements. It will be of interest to professionals in industry and academic researchers alike, as well as engineering students.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ultrasonic Nondestructive Testing of Materials: Theoretical Foundations explores the mathematical foundations and emerging applications of this testing process, which is based on elastic wave propagation in isotropic and anisotropic solids. In covering ultrasonic nondestructive testing methods, the book emphasizes the engineering point of view, yet it relies on the physics and mathematics aspects involved in elastic wave propagation theory. As a result, this resource becomes a missing link in the literature by combining coverage of the theoretical aspects of testing and providing intuitive assessments of numerous standard problems to illustrate fundamental assertions. Content includes a brief description of the theory of acoustic and electromagnetic fields to underline the similarities and differences as compared to elastodynamics. It also covers vector algebra and analysis, elastic plane and Rayleigh surface waves, and ultrasonic beams, as well as transducer radiation, inverse scattering, and ultrasonic nondestructive imaging. Includes numerical computations to explain wave propagation phenomena and compare results of analytical formulations Although ultrasonic nondestructive testing can often be roughly understood in terms of plane waves and beams, this book addresses the key issues of transducer radiation and defect scattering and imaging, respectively. The authors physically formulate point source synthesis, and, in mathematical terms, they use representation integrals with Green functions, always including intuitive interpretations with mathematical evaluations. Replacing cumbersome index notation with a coordinate-free version, this reference offers step-by-step documentation of relevant tensorial elastodynamic cases involving isotropic and anisotropic materials. It provides all necessary mathematical tools readers require to understand the mathematical and physical basis for ultrasonic nondestructive testing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis is focused on the development of ultrasonic devices for industrial non-destructive testing (NDT). Ultrasound is generated from mechanical vibrations and then propagates through the medium. Ultrasonic devices can make use of the ultrasound in both aspects, vibrations and propagations, to perform inspections of the objects. To this end, two devices were developed in this research, each pertaining to NDT of the objects. The first device is the vibro-tactile sensor which aims to estimate the elastic modules of soft materials with minimally invasive technique. Inspired by load sensitivity studies in the high-power ultrasonic applications, vibration characteristics in resonance were utilized to perform the inspection. Only a minimal force to ensure contact with the object surface needs to be applied for a vibro-tactile sensor to perform inspection of the object; hence, it can be used for in-vivo measurement of the soft materials' elastic moduli without causing severe surface deformation. The design and analysis of the device were carried out using the electro-mechanical analogy to address the electro-mechanical nature of piezoelectric devices. The designed vibro-tactile sensor resonates at ~40 kHz and can be applied to differentiate the elastic modulus of isotropic soft samples with a range from 10 kPa to 70 kPa. The second device developed is a field-programmable development platform for ultrasonic pulse-echo testing. Ultrasonic testing, utilizing sound wave propagation, is a widely used technique in the industry. The commercially available equipment for industrial NDT is highly dependent on the competence of the inspector and rarely provides the access to raw data. For successful transition from traditional labor-intensive manufacturing to the next generation "smart factory" where intelligent machines replace human labor, inspection equipment with automated in-line data collection and processing capability is highly needed. To this end, a flexible platform which provides the access to raw data for algorithm development and implementation should be established. Therefore, an affordable, versatile, and researcher-friendly development platform based on field-programmable gate array (FPGA) was developed in the research. Both hardware and software development tools and procedures were discussed. In the lab experiment, the developed prototype exhibited its competence in NDT applications and successfully carried out hardware-based auto-detection algorithm for mm-level defects on steel and aluminum specimens. Comparisons with commercial systems were provided to guide future development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this era of technological progress and given the need for welfare and safety, everything that is manufactured and maintained must comply with such needs. We would all like to live in a safe house that will not collapse on us. We would all like to walk on a safe road and never see a chasm open in front of us. We would all like to cross a bridge and reach the other side safely. We all would like to feel safe and secure when taking a plane, ship, train, or using any equipment. All this may be possible with the adoption of adequate manufacturing processes, with non-destructive inspection of final parts and monitoring during the in-service life of components. Above all, maintenance should be imperative. This requires effective non-destructive testing techniques and procedures. This Special Issue is a collection of some of the latest research in these areas, aiming to highlight new ideas and ways to deal with challenging issues worldwide. Different types of materials and structures are considered, different non-destructive testing techniques are employed with new approaches for data treatment proposed as well as numerical simulations. This can serve as food for thought for the community involved in the inspection of materials and structures as well as condition monitoring.

Download or read book Fundamentals of Ultrasonic Nondestructive Evaluation written by Lester W. Schmerr Jr. and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 563 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ultrasound is currently used in a wide spectrum of applications ranging from medical imaging to metal cutting. This book is about using ultrasound in nondestructive evaluation (NDE) inspections. Ultrasonic NDE uses high-frequency acoustic/elastic waves to evaluate components without affecting their integrity or performance. This technique is commonly used in industry (particularly in aerospace and nuclear power) to inspect safety-critical parts for flaws during in-service use. Other important uses of ultrasonic NDE involve process control functions during manufacturing and fundamental materials characterization studies. It is not difficult to set up an ultrasonic NDE measurement system to launch waves into a component and monitor the waves received from defects, such as cracks, even when those defects are deep within the component. It is difficult however to interpret quantitatively the signals received in such an ultrasonic NDE measurement process. For example based on the ultrasonic signal received from a crack, what is the size, shape, and orientation of the crack producing the signal? Answering such questions requires evaluation procedures based on a detailed knowledge of the physics of the entire ultrasonic measurement process. One approach to obtaining such knowledge is to couple quantitative experiments closely with detailed models of the entire ultrasonic measurement system itself. We refer to such models here as ultrasonic NDE measurement models. In other areas of engineering, models have revolutionized how engineering is practiced. A classic example is the impact of the finite-element method on elastic stress analysis.
