레이더법은 건축구조물에 대한 비파괴 검사의 대표적인 방법의 하나이다. 레이더법을 이용하는데 영향을 주는 요인들을 연구하고, 레이더로 측정된 결과들을 분석하기 위해서는 전자기파의 전파에 대한 수치적인 모델링을 통한 이론적인 접근이 필요하다. 콘크리트 시편에 전파되는 전자기파를 모델링 하기 위해 유한차분 시간영역법을 적용하고자 한다. 유한차분 시간영역법은 전자파 해석과 모델링을 통한 시뮬레이션에 매우 유용한 방법이다. 본 연구에서는 유한차분 시간영역법을 이용하여 두께가 다른 4개의 시편과 두께는 100㎜로 동일하고 피복두께가 다른 3개의 시편을 3차원으로 모델링 하였다. 두께 측정 모델링 결과에서는 계산영역의 셀간격과 입사파의 파장/콘크리트 시편의 두께값이 모델링의 정확성에 미치는 영향을 알 수 있었다. 철근이 있는 시편의 모델링에서는 0.08%∼0.5%의 오차로 철근의 위치를 확인할 수 있었다.

Acoustic emission(AE) signals during the polymerization shrinkage of composite resin subjected to the LED light exposure were detected through a wave guide method and a direct sensor attachment method. For PMMA, human tooth, stainless steel substrate, data of AE hits and amplitudes were compared. For the test using the wave guide, AE amplitudes decreased because of the attenuant wave. However, AE hits and 1st peak frequency distribution were not different according to the sensor attachments. Through the experiments, wave guide could be used for a nondestructive evaluation of the marginal disintegrative fracture of dental restoration.

EMAT는 비접촉으로 초음파를 송수신 할 수 있는 탐촉자로서 시험체와 탐촉자간의 접촉을 위한 매개 물질이 필요치 않으므로, 움직이고 있는 물체에 초음파탐상법을 적용하고자 하는 분야와 초음파의 속도를 정밀하게 측정하고자 하는 분야에 주로 응용된다. 구체적으로는 길이가 긴 튜브류의 결함 탐상, 용접중인 재료의 용접상태 감시, 기차바퀴 및 레일의 결함 탐상, 고온상태인 재료의 결함 탐상 등이 비접촉 특성을 이용하여 적용될 수 있는 분야이며, 재료의 집합조직 및 소성이방성의 측정, 재료의 미세조직 및 기계적 강도의 예측, 그리고 잔류응력의 측정 등이 정밀한 초음파속도 및 감쇠의 측정으로부터 적용될 수 있는 분야이다. EMAT가 일반적인 접촉식초음파탐상법에 비하여 특별한 분야에의 응용에 큰 장점을 가지고 있지만, 낮은 에너지 전환효율, 넓은 불감영역, 그리고 사용주파수의 한계 등의 문제를 가지고 있기 때문에 기존의 접촉식 방법의 적용이 용이한 분야에의 적용은 필요하지 않다. 그러나 특별한 목적과 용도에의 적용 필요성이 생길 경우에는 적절한 연구를 통하여 알맞은 탐촉자를 제작하고 탐상 방법을 개발함으로서 본래의 목적에 알맞은 탐상이 수행될 수 있다.

Defects positioning of underground gas pipelines using MFL(magnetic flux leakage) inspection which is one of non-destructive evaluation techniques is proposed in this paper. MFL signals acquired from MFL PIG(pipeline inspection gauge) have nonlinearity and distortion caused by various external disturbances. SQI(self quotient image), a compensation technique for nonlinearity and distortion of MFL signal, is used to correct positioning of pipeline defects. Through the experiments using artificial defects carved in the KOGAS pipeline simulation facility, it is found that the performance of proposed defect detection is greatly improved compared to that of the conventional DCT(discrete cosine transform) coefficients based detection.

Electrofusion(EF) joints have been widely used as they are easy to fuse and suitable for high-quality joints for polyethylene(PE) pipes. This paper studies the cause of defects and classifies 5 types of defects. The defect detection technique for electrofusion joints of polyethylene piping is utilized by the ultrasonic phased array technique to obtain ultrasonic images of electrofusion joints. Test sample joints have been designed and fabricated using artificial defects which were made using paper. Finally, we studied the condition of electrofusion in the field and analyzed the main causes of defects. And we classified the defect types as local lack of fusion, sand inclusion, voids or air inclusion, short stab, excess penetration or excess bead.

Due to the development of nondestructive testing techniques, methods of inspecting cracks in mechanical parts have drawn attentions. Among various non-destructive testing methods the acoustic resonance method which analyzes the natural frequencies has been developed into a technique suitable for the prompt judgements of the existence of the defects in the mechanical parts. In this study, we investigated the crack inspection technique to examine the cracks in the yoke tubes by using the acoustic resonance method and realized the system to quickly detect the cracks. A 24bit ADC circuit and an MCU were installed for the smooth data collection, and a TCP / IP communication interface was configured for the data communication with PC. We used a microphone as a sensor measuring the vibrations. We constructed an analysis software to obtain the frequency spectra of the vibrations, to find the existence of the cracks, and to feedback to the user. Tests were conducted using the yoke tubes manufactured in the real industrial field. The tests were successfully conducted to distinguish the good products from the defective (cracked) products and confirmed that they can be employed in the actual industrial field.

To determine detection capabilities of locating steel bars and delamination inside concrete, commercially available nondestructive testing (NDT) equipments have been tested. The equipments include two radar systems and two electromagnetic method systems. The inclusions are a 19 mm diameter steel bar and 50 mm thick delamination embedded at different cover depths from the surface of concrete specimens. For the steel bar, attempts were made to determine the size of the bars by changing the diameter of the bars. A sample result of measuring horizontal spacing between doubly reinforced bars is presented in this paper. Experimental results on various measurement cases are discussed. Application of numerical modeling technique for the simulation of radar measurements and improved output display of radar measurements are also presented.

The joint treatment of concrete is one of the technical problems in top down construction method. Joints created with the top down construction result in serious weakness from the aspects of both structural and water-barrier function. Ultrasonic method was used for the inspection of top down construction joints of a various column in SRC structure in this study. The advantages and limitations of this method for non-destructive inspection in top down construction joints are investigated. As a result, it has been verified that the semi-direct measurement method is more effective than the other methods for detecting the voids of construction joints using ultrasonic method.

Conventional film radiographic test has been generally and widely used in the inspection on the weldment for quality assurance. On the other hand, since the analog RT is well known for typical time and cost consuming method with complex process of inspection, the industry has researched various ways how to improve radiographic test technology. In this study, we verified the fact that digital RT provides a lot more benefit in effectively detecting defects, ever film details, through digital processing of image enhancement, compared to film RT. As a result, we reached conclusion that digital RT is positively able to replace the film RT in industry in part or in whole.
