Effects of the microstructure and the testing conditions for the detectability of the small flaw in ultrasonic testing have been studied. The detectability of the flaw was influenced not only by the grain size but also by the microstructure of the test piece. This is considered to be caused by randomization of the matrix which influences the elastic anisotropy of the grain. It was found that the detectability was improved as the frequence became higher and the beam size became smaller. The experimental results indicate that ultrasonic backscattering measurement is one of the promising methods to evaluate the detectability of the flaw indirectly.

The important point of MPI is the analysis of leakage field in the defective regions. The analysis of leakage field depends on many factors such like geometry and character of defect. In general the calculation of magnetic leakage fields arising from such defects presents an extremely complicated mathematical problem and is practically insoluable, since the inhomogeneities have complex geometrical shapes and may differ in physical nature. Therefore, this paper describes Hall probe measurements of residual leakage field around artificial flaws in alloy steel bar, and shows how the results to recent developments in 2D dipole and analytic models of the magnetic field defect interaction.

This paper presents the ultrasonic characteristics of weldment and detectability of defects of weldment in Austenitic Stainless Steel Type 304 that is composed of mostly coolant piping system in nuclear power plants. The results of this experient show as follows: 1. When the ultrasonic beam detects the defects on the side of base metal and on the opposite side of weldment, the indications which was detected on the screen show different amplitude and different metal path each. 2. The ultrasonically estimated notch depth is generally oversized than actual notch depth. 3. It is easy for the false indication to show up on the screen because of columnar structure of weldment in austenitic stainless steel. 4. The higher frequencies of transducer have more difficulties to detect the defects of the opposite side of weldment because of ultrasonic attenuation in weldment and the longitudinal transmitter-receiver transducer is the most effective in detecting the opposite side defects of weldment.

본 고는 1997년 12월 31일 개정된 "강 용접부의 방사선투과시험 방법 및 투과 사진의 등급분류 방법" (한국산업규격 KS B 0845)을 이해하는데 참고가 될 수 있도록 일본공업규격 JIS Z 3104의 해설부분을 번역한 것으로 KS B 0845의 모체가 되는 JIS Z 3104의 본래취지를 정확히 전달하기 위하여 편집하거나 가감하지 않고 원문 그대로 기술하였으며 KS B 0845와는 일부 용어나 항목구성에 차이가 있으나 번호에 관계없이 각항목의 제목을 보고 이해하게 하였다. 특히 일부 부속 규격의 미 제정상태에서 개정판이 발표되어 적용에 혼란을 초래할 수도 있겠으나 부분적인 적용은 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

이미 오래전부터 국내외에서 석유화학공장 등의 보온 배관에서 보온재를 벗기지 않고 배관의 부식 손상 및 잔존두께를 평가하는데 방사선투과시험법을 적용해 오고 있다. 그러나 배관 용접부의 결함 탐상에 관한 방사선투과법에 대한 국제 및 국내 코드는 이미 마련되어 있지만 배관의 두께와 내부에 존재하는 부착물(deposit) 등의 두께를 측정하는 것에 관련한 국제 및 국내 코드는 미비되어 시험 절차 및 시험 결과에 대한 시비가 근본적으로 존재할 수 밖에 없을 뿐만 아니라 표준화된 시험 기술의 미비로 현장에서 많은 시행착오를 동반하였다. 그러나 최근 이 시험법에 대한 관련 원안(protocol)을 확정하기 위해 각국에서 개별적으로 수행되었던 기존의 연구 결과들이 취합되고 있으며 부족한 부분들에 대한 연구가 국제 공동 연구 형식으로 이뤄지고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 tangential radiography를 적용하여 보온된 배관의 잔존 두께를 평가할 수 있는 시험 방법을 제시하고자 하였다.

As the thin film technology has emerged in various fields, adhesion of the film interface becomes an important issue in terms of the longevity and durability of thin film devices. Diverse nondestructive methods utilizing acoustic techniques have been developed to assess the interfacial integrity. As an effective technique based on the ultrasonic wave focusing and the surface acoustic wave(SAW) generation, scanning acoustic microscopy(SAM) has been investigated for adhesion evaluation. Visualization of film microstructures and quantification of adhesion weakness levels by SAW dispersion are the recent achievements of SAM. To overcome the limitations in the theoretical dispersion model only suitable for perfectly elastic and isotropic materials, a new model has been more recently developed in consideration of film anisotropy and viscoelasticity and applied to the adhesion evaluation of polymeric films fabricated on semiconductive wafers.

Abrupt change of cross-section in mechanical parts is one of significant causes of structural fracture. In this paper, a hybrid method is employed to analyze the stress distribution of a discontinuous plate. The plate with an inclined crack is utilized in our experiment and the stress field in the vicinity of crack tip is calculated through isochromatic fringe order of given points. This calculation can be made handy through least-squares method integrated with complex power series representation(Laurent series) implemented on a computer program for high-speed processing. In order to accurately compare calculated results with experimental ones, both of actual and regenerated photoelastic fringe patterns are doubled and sharpened by digital image processing. The experiment results show that regenerated patterns obtained by hybrid method are quite comparable to actual patterns.

In this paper, four different types of pulsed eddy current(PEC) probe are designed and their performance of detecting wall thickness reduction is compared. By using the backward difference method in time and the finite element method in space, PEC signals from various thickness and materials are numerically calculated and three features of the signal are selected. Since PEC signals and features are obtained by various types and sizes of probe, the comparison is made through the normalized features which reflect the sensitivity of the feature to thickness reduction. The normalized features indicate that the shielded reflection probe provides the best sensitivity to wall thickness reduction for all three signal features. Results show that the best sensitivity to thickness reduction can be achieved by the peak value, but also suggest that the time to peak can be a good candidate because of its linear relationship with the thickness variation.

The multifrequency eddy current testing(ECT) have been proposed various frequency mixing algorithms. In this study, we compare these approaches to frequency mixing of ECT signals from steam generator tubes; time-domain optimization, discrete cosine transform-domain optimization. Specifically, in this study, two different frequency mixing algorithms, a time-domain optimization method and a discrete cosine transform(DCT) optimization method, are investigated using the experimental signals captured from the ASME standard tube. The DCT domain optimization method is computationally fast but produces larger amount of residue.
