    摘要: Techniques for ultrasonic determination of the interfacial relationship of multi-component systems are discussed. In implementations, a laser energy source may be used to excite a multi-component system including a first component and a second component at least in partial contact with the first component. Vibrations resulting from the excitation may be detected for correlation with a resonance pattern indicating if discontinuity exists at the interface of the first and second components.

    摘要: A high spatial resolution phase-sensitive technique employs a scanning near field ultrasound holography (SNFUH) methodology for imaging elastic as well as viscoelastic variations across a sample surface. SNFUH uses a near-field approach to measure time-resolved variations in ultrasonic oscillations at a sample surface. As such, it overcomes the spatial resolution limitations of conventional phase-resolved acoustic microscopy (i.e. holography) by eliminating the need for far-field acoustic lenses.

    摘要: A preferred embodiment of this invention is illustrated in FIG. 4 showing an offset and tilted object transducer 50 being rotated about a system axis 51 to sequentially insonify the object from various acute incident angles .theta. to the system axis to provide images of the out-of-focus structures at spaced locations at the hologram detection surface 18 at different spaced times. If the pulse rate of the object transducer is greater than the fusion of the eye, the eye is able to average two or more images into a single perceived image. Likewise, video equipment that receives images at a rate greater than 30 Hertz will average two or more images and display the image at a rate of approximately 30 Hertz. Additionally, external video processing may be utilized to electronically average two or more images electronically to obtain an averaged image at any time constant desired by the operator. Such a system effectively neutralizes or blends the out-of-focus structure of an object spaced from a selected focus plane 27 while maintaining the structure within the plane in sharp consistent contrast to provide consistent, quality images of the internal structure of an object 12.

    摘要: Defects in a structure are imaged as they propagate, using their emitted acoustic energy as a monitored source. Short bursts of acoustic energy propagate through the structure to a discrete element receiver array. A reference timing transducer located between the array and the inspection zone initiates a series of time-of-flight measurements. A resulting series of time-of-flight measurements are then treated as aperture data and are transferred to a computer for reconstruction of a synthetic linear holographic image. The images can be displayed and stored as a record of defect growth.

    摘要: In a method of and an apparatus for detecting flaws inside articles, the flaw area for detection being subjected to ultrasonic pulses on which, after reaction with the flaw, a reference beam is superimposed, whereupon the resulting interference field is holographically detected, reconstructed and evaluated. This method can be applied to thin and sound-scattering materials with improved resolution and a description of the flaw configuration and detection of the deformation behavior of flaws. In the method, a load is applied to the flaw area under investigation and this area is subjected to ultrasonic pulses at least at two different times each corresponding to an extreme value of the loading, the ultrasonic pulses being short with respect to the load period and, after reaction with the flaw, reference pulses are superimposed on the ultrasonic pulses, whereupon the holograms of these ultrasonic applications are superimposed to give an interferogram which can be evaluated. The block schematic diagram of an apparatus for performing the method is shown in FIG. 1, in which reference 1 denotes a loading unit, 3 an ultrasonic transmitter and the units 11-5 form a control unit.

    摘要: The invention relates to the acousto-optical imagery of objects transmitting ultrasonic waves; an optical image diffracted by the action of an ultrasonic wave is detected by coherent detection in an electro-optical and photoconductive holographic recording material under an applied field by holographic recording of the interferences between the diffracted order to be imaged formed by the optical wave of pulsation .omega..sub.o +.omega..sub.s (or .omega..sub.o -.omega..sub.S) and an optical reference wave having the same pulsations. Imagery is effected in real time by restoration of the object wave by a reading wave having the same pulsation as the reference wave.

    摘要: Echo ranging flaw detecting, characterizing and studying apparatus in which the work is scanned simultaneously by acoustic energy focused at a point from an acoustic-lens transducer and by acoustic energy focused along a line along which it is propagated from a focused-arc transducer. The acoustical echos from the lens transducer are combined with an electrical analog of an acoustical reference wave to produce an acoustical interference pattern which is reconstructed into a holographic display or hologram by a laser beam. The echos from the focused-arc transducer produce a cathode-ray tube display or are stored in a memory.

    摘要: A linear transducer array for transmitting and receiving acoustic waves in both pulse-echo and holographic modes of operation. For pulse-echo acoustic imaging the array includes a linear subarray of transmitting transducer elements disposed in a plane along a longitudinal axis. Each transmitting element has an elongate shape and a principal axis that is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the array. For holographic imaging the apparatus further includes a removable mechanical shutter for blocking a predetermined portion of the principal axis of each of the transmitting elements so that a dispersive acoustic beam can be generated. The array also includes a linear subarray of receiving transducer elements coplanar with the transmitting subarray and disposed parallel to the longitudinal axis. The subarray of receiving elements is used to detect the reflected acoustic waves for both holographic and pulse-echo imaging.
