Total Focusing Method Based Ultrasonic Phased Array Imaging in Thick Structures [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Nondestructive Evaluation, Diagnostics and Prognostics of Engineering Systems, 2021
Abstract Ultrasonic non-destructive testing traditionally uses a conventional monolithic transducer. An approach similar to this comprising of independent single transmissions but with reception performed by all the elements in phased array ultrasonics is known as Full Matrix Capture (FMC).

Calibration of ultrasonic hardware for enhanced total focusing method imaging [PDF]

open access: yesInsight - Non-Destructive Testing and Condition Monitoring, 2020
Experimental variation from ultrasonic hardware is one source of uncertainty in measured ultrasonic data. This uncertainty leads to a reduction in the accuracy of images generated from these data. In this paper, a quick, easy-to-use and robust methodology is proposed to reduce this uncertainty in images generated using the total focusing method (TFM).

Supporting Imaging of Austenitic Welds with Finite Element Welding Simulation—Which Parameters Matter?

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
The basic principle of ultrasound is to relate the time of flight of a received echo to the location of a reflector, assuming a known and constant velocity of sound.

On Dispersion Compensation for GAW-Based Structural Health Monitoring

open access: yesSensors, 2023
Guided acoustic waves (GAW) have proven to be a useful tool for structural health monitoring (SHM). However, the dispersive nature of commonly used Lamb waves compromises the spatial resolution making it difficult to detect small or weakly reflective ...

Optimal Design of Sparse Array for Ultrasonic Total Focusing Method by Binary Particle Swarm Optimization

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
Ultrasonic phased array technology is used in various fields. Traditional full phased arrays place elements in every position of a uniform lattice with half-wavelength spacing between the lattice points, so the hardware cost is very high.

Multi-Mode Total Focusing Method (MTFM) to Detect High-Temperature Hydrogen Attack (HTHA) – A Review

open access: yesJournal of Materials Exploration and Findings, 2023
High temperature hydrogen attack (HTHA) is a commonly observed harm component in carbon steels exposed to high temperature and pressure in a hydrogen-rich environment. Hydrogen together with carbon responds to produce methane.
