During the fabrication process of reactor vessel head penetration (RVHP), the grain size of the tube material can be changed by hot or cold work and the inner side of the tube can also be shrunk due to welding outside of the tube. Several nonregular time-

Multiframe Ultrasonic TOFD Weld Inspection Imaging Based on Wavelet Transform and Image Registration
TOFD (time of flight diffraction) is a kind of weld defect detection technology by using ultrasonic diffraction wave signal. Because the diffraction intensity is far less than ultrasonic echo wave intensity, thus, the noise contained in TOFD signal is fairly large, and the formed image is not clear enough.

Tangential Homology for Defect Detection in the Time of Flight Diffraction Method (TOFD) [PDF]
AbstractUltrasonic non‐destructive testing (NDT) techniques are widely used in industry to evaluate properties of a component, material or system without causing any damage. The time of flight diffraction method (TOFD) is regarded as a valuable procedure for the detection of welding defects.

Ultrasonic Flaw Imaging via Multipath Exploitation
We consider ultrasonic imaging for the visualization of flaws in a material. Ultrasonic imaging is a powerful nondestructive testing (NDT) tool which assesses material conditions via the detection, localization, and classification of flaws inside a structure. We utilize reflections of ultrasonic signals which occur when encountering different media and

Non-destructive testing and fracture mechanics: A short discussion [PDF]
A short discussion is provided on the relationship between non-destructive testing and fracture mechanics. The basic tasks behind this are to guarantee the safety of a component at a potential hazard loading event, to specify inspection intervals or ...

CIVA Confirmation of Frequency Dependence of TOFD Lateral Wave
Pulse-duration (ring-time) of the TOFD (Time of Flight Diffraction) lateral wave has been assumed to be based on the nominal frequency of the probe. With the improved damping used for TOFD applications, these probes now have had their ring-time reduced ...
