Ultrasound nondestructive evaluation (NDE) imaging with transducer arrays and adaptive processing

open access: yes, 2011
This paper addresses the challenging problem of ultrasonic non-destructive evaluation (NDE) imaging with adaptive transducer arrays. In NDE applications, most materials like concrete, stainless steel and carbon-reinforced composites used extensively in ...

Frequency Properties of an Air-Cored Coil and Application to Conductivity Measurement

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
This study investigated the frequency properties of an air-cored coil and applied it to inspect conductivity change. Theoretical analysis and experimental study showed that what we measured is not the coil's own resistance and inductance but the ...

Reading the near-death experience from an African perspective

open access: yesHTS Teologiese Studies/Theological Studies, 2015
The scientific study of near-death experience (NDE) teaches that NDE does not entail evidence for life after death, but a study of NDE from an African perspective implies that NDE could serve as a yardstick which supports African traditional beliefs ...

Benefits of Non-Destructive Evaluation and Probabilistic Damage Tolerance Cosimulation for Fracture Risk Reduction

open access: yese-Journal of Nondestructive Testing, 2023
In the context of the damage tolerance approach used to drive aircraft maintenance operations, it is essential to demonstrate the reliability of NDE inspections in detecting structural damage especially for additively manufactured components since this ...

Microstructural Evolution and Vacancy Defect Formation in Mn–Mo–Ni RPV Steel Under Low Cycle Fatigue: Insights From EBSD and PALS

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Low‐cycle fatigue damage in Mn–Mo–Ni reactor pressure vessel steel is examined using a combined electron backscatter diffraction and positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy approach. The study correlates texture evolution, dislocation substructure development, and vacancy‐type defect formation across uniform, necked, and fracture regions, providing

Characteristics of near-death experiences memories as compared to real and imagined events memories. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Since the dawn of time, Near-Death Experiences (NDEs) have intrigued and, nowadays, are still not fully explained. Since reports of NDEs are proposed to be imagined events, and since memories of imagined events have, on average, fewer phenomenological ...
