Development of a Membrane Coupled Conformable Phased Array
The non-destructive inspection of components with irregular surface geometry can be very challenging. The performance of inspections using conventional rigid wedge ultrasonic transducers is limited because of inconsistent coupling and beam distortion. A novel approach using a membrane coupled conformable phased array device is under development to reduce these problems. This lowcost, robust dev...
متن کاملNon-Destructive Inspection of Components with Irregular Surfaces using a Conformable Ultrasonic Phased Array
A conformable phased array device is being developed that allows reliable ultrasonic inspection of components with irregular surfaces. The device uses a standard linear phased array transducer, which is coupled to the surface under test by a water path, encapsulated by a low loss, synthetic rubber membrane. A comparison of results obtained using conventional ultrasonic techniques and the confor...
متن کاملBiplane Phased Array for Ultrasonic Medical Imaging
We report a transducer structure tha t combines two orthogonal phased arrays which enable the real-time scanning of two orthogonal sectors. This biplane phased array is formed by partially dicing the opposite faces of a composite piezoelectric plate in orthogonal directions. Individual elements of the orthogonal arrays show broad radiation patterns close to the theoretical expectations for isol...
متن کاملPhased array ultrasonic imaging using an improved beamforming based total focusing method for non destructive test
One of the novel ultrasonic phased array based scanning methods for ultrasonic imaging in non-destructive test is total focusing method (TFM). This method employs maximum available information of the phased array elements and leads to an improved defect detection accuracy compared to conventional scanning methods. Despite its high detection accuracy, TFM behaves weak in distinguishing the real ...
