Three-dimensional Real-time Synthetic Aperture Imaging Using a Rotating Phased Array Transducer
Current 3D real-time imaging is done either with sparse 2D arrays, or with mechanically moved phased arrays. The former results in a poor resolution and contrast due to a limited amount of elements. The latter has the disadvantage of low frame rates due to the sequential acquisition of the volume line-by-line and plane-by-plane. This paper describes an approach which combines mechanically moved...
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 ...

متن کاملGroundwork for Rail Flaw Detection Using Ultrasonic Phased Array Inspection
An apparent increase in the detectability of certain flaws results when the ultrasonic inspection beam was oriented off the longitudinal axis of railroad rail. Here, artificial reflectors were used to better define the extent of material "seen" by inspection beams, and determine how surface curvature might affect the inspection. Presumably, such information could be useful for suggesting optimu...
متن کاملTwo-Dimensional Capacitive Micromachined Ultrasonic Transducer (CMUT) Arrays for a Miniature Integrated Volumetric Ultrasonic Imaging System
We have designed, fabricated, and characterized two-dimensional 16x16-element capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer (CMUT) arrays. The CMUT array elements have a 250-μm pitch, and when tested in immersion, have a 5-MHz center frequency and 99% fractional bandwidth. The fabrication process is based on standard silicon micromachining techniques and therefore has the advantages of high yi...
