For the purpose of domestic production of ultrasonic transducer, experiments on material selection for backing and matching layer, and electrical impedance matching between transducer and equipment were performed. The characteristics of manufactured transducers with experimental results were analyzed and compared with foreign products. Through the evaluation of the transducers manufactured and the comparision with foreign products, it is confirmed that the transducers manufactured show the good performance characteristics and efficiency.

NDE(Nondestructive examination) detects a flaw or discontinuity in materials. Flaws detected by the examination shall be evaluated for the decision basis of the integrity. The internal flaws of forging products can be detected by UT. However, UT has detection limits because of its reflected signal weakness. Normally, a 1mm or less flaw is known as the limit. If a flaw was detected, the size of flaw would be evaluated by AVG(or DGS) technique. To verify the evaluation data, alternative examination methods are needed. But there is no alternative examination methods until now. In this study, Phased array ultrasonic technique can be used to size the flaws in the generator rotor with focused beam of ultrasonic wave as a supplement method of AVG. Also, the phased array ultrasonic technique described enables the shape of flaw to be depicted exactly.

Computer-aided high frequency ultrasonic is applied to aluminum oxide(85w%, 94w%, 96w%, and 99w%) MOR(modulus of rupture) samples to evaluate mechanical properties such as density variation, pore content, elastic modulus, shear modulus, and poisson's ratio. Ultrasonic wave velocity and attenuation measurement techniques were used as an evaluator of such properties. Pulse-echo C-Scan images with different fate setting method using 50MHz center frequency 1 inch focal length transducer allows evaluation of density variation and pore content. Elastic modulus calculated with the relation of density and ultrasonic velocity. It shows good reliability as compared with resonance method. Sintered density variation of $0.025g/cm^{3}$, that is 0.6% of theoretical density in $Al_{2}O_{3}$ samples can be observed by ultrasonic velocity measurement. Attenuation measurement method qualitatively agree with 4-point fracture testing result concerning of porosity content.

섬유강화복합재료의 품질향상을 위하여 제조공정중에 발생하게 되는 층간 분리 및 기공 등의 결함이 온라인상에서 검출되어야 한다. 일반적으로 섬유강화복합재료의 비파괴 평가에 있어서 초음파 평가기법이 널리 이용되고 있으나 기존의 초음파 평가 기법은 초음파 전파를 위하여 접촉이 이루어져야 하는 단점이 있다. 따라서 기존의 초음파 평가기법은 비접촉의 기법이 아니므로 제조공정중에 적용할 수 없다. 비접촉식의 초음파 평가 기법을 구현하기 위하여 광학적 기법의 레이저 기법이 적용되었으며 본 연구에서는 레이저 유도 초음파 발생 기법과 레이저 간섭계를 이용한 수신기법이 섬유강화 복합재료 판재에서 적용되었다. 레이저 유도 초음파는 펄스레이저에 의한 복합재료 표면의 순간적인 가열과 이에 의한 열변형으로 발생되어 전파되며 본 연구에 가속도계, AE센서 등 주파수 범위가 다른 수신센서를 이용하여 전파방향 변화에 따른 유도 초음파를 수신하였으며 수신된 유도초음파의 전파방향에 따른 전파속도를 비교하였다. 또한 비접촉 수신기법으로 레이저 간섭계를 이용하여 탄소섬유강화 복합재료에서의 초음파를 수신하고 그 주파수 특성을 분석하였다.

Embrittlement of material by hydrogen charging should be cleared for safety of storage vessel of hydrogen and components deal with hydrogen. A stainless steel is generally used as materials for hydrogen transportation and storage, and it has a big advantage of corrosion resistance due to nickel component in material. In this study, microscopic damage behavior of stainless steel according to the hydrogen charging time using nondestructive evaluation was studied. The surface of stainless steel became more brittle as the hydrogen charging time increased. The parameters of nondestructive evaluation were also changed with the embrittlement of stainless steel surface by hydrogen charging. Ultrasonic test, which is the most generalized nondestructive technique, was applied to evaluate the relationship between the ultrasonic wave and mechanical properties of stainless steel by hydrogen charging. The attenuation coefficient of ultrasonic wave was increased with hydrogen charging time because of surface embrittlement of stainless steel. In addition, acoustic emission test was also used to study the dynamic behavior of stainless steel experienced hydrogen charging. AE event at the hydrogen charged specimen was obviously decreased at the plastic zone of stress-strain curves, while the number of event for the specimen of hydrogen free was dramatically generated when compared with the specimens underwent hydrogen charging.

본 연구에서는 나노 표면층의 특성 평가를 위해 원자현미경에 초음파 특성을 결합하여 초음파 원자 현미경을 개발하였다. 초음파 원자 현미경은 기존의 나노 표면층에 대한 토포그래프 이미지뿐만 아니라 국부적인 이종부분으로 이루어진 표면에서의 물리적 특성차이에 의한 표면의 탄성 특성 이미지를 얻을 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 프로토타입의 UAFM 장치를 구성하고 이를 몇몇 응용분야에 적용하였다. 구축한 프로토타입의 UAFM 시스템을 이용하여 증착 실리콘 박막층과 냉간 압조용 강의 구상화 그리고 탄소 섬유 강화 복합재료의 표면에 대한 탄성 이미지를 성공적으로 얻을 수 있었다.

The ability of time reversal techniques to focus ultrasonic beams on the source location is important in many aspects of ultrasonic nondestructive evaluation. In this paper, we investigate the time reversal beam focusing of ultrasonic array sensors on a defect in layered media. Numerical modeling is performed using the commercially available software which employs a time domain finite difference method. Two different time reversal approaches are considered - the through transmission and the pulse-echo. Linear array sensors composed of N elements of line sources are used for signal reception/excitation, time reversal, and reemission in time reversal processes associated with the scattering source of a side-drilled hole located in the second layer of two layer structure. The simulation results demonstrate the time reversal focusing even with multiple reflections from the interface of layered structure. We examine the focusing resolution that is related to the propagation distance, the size of array sensor and the wavelength.

It will be shown how models can simulate all the elements of an ultrasonic NDE measurement system, including the pulser/receiver, cabling, transducer(s), and the acoustic/elastic waves fields. When combined, these models form what is called the electroacoustic measurement model. It will be demonstrated how this electroacoustic measurement model can be used to conduct parametric transducer and system studies and how the model can form the basis for experimentally characterizing all the elements of the ultrasonic measurement system, using purely electrical measurements.

Two different types of nondestructive evaluation (NDE) techniques were employed to investigate the tensile behavior of ceramic matrix composites (CMCs). Two NDE methods, ultrasonic testing (UT) and infrared (IR) thermography, were used to assess defects and/or damage evolution before and during mechanical testing. Prior to tensile testing, a UTC-scan and a xenon flash method were performed to obtain initial defect information in light of UT C-scans and thermal diffusivity maps, respectively. An IR camera was used for in-situ monitoring of progressive damages. The IR camera measured temperature changes during tensile testing. This paper has presented the feasibility of using NDE techniques to interpret structural performance of CMCs.
