Evaluation of Ultrasonic C-Scan Images by Fractal Dimension
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, quantitative evaluation of ultrasonic Cscan images through estimation of their Fractal Dimension (FD) is discussed. Necessary algorithm for evaluation of FD of any 2-D digitized image is implemented by developing a computer code. For the evaluation purpose several C-scan images of the Kevlar composite impacted by high speed bullet and glass fibre composite having flaw in the form of inclusion is used. This analysis automatically differentiates a C-scan image showing distinct damage zone, from an image that contains no such damage. Keywords—C-scan, Impact, Fractal Dimension, Kevlar composite and Inclusion Flaw

Fractal Dimension of Waveforms as a Useful Feature in Ultrasonic Imaging
In this paper an alternative way of generating C-scan images using Fractal Dimension (FD) of any digitized waveforms as an ultrasonic feature is proposed. The work is carried out on the composite specimen having flaw in the form of inclusion and damage created by the drop weight impact. The technique to estimate FD of a 2D image is modified in this work and a procedure to compute FD of a digiti...

The results of ultrasonic tests are usually displayed as A-scan signals. In an A-scan signal, reflections of ultrasonic wave form different reflectors are shown as sharp echoes on a time by amplitude display. Interpretation of these echoes can sometimes be quite difficult and usually requires knowledgeable and experienced specialists. There exist other methods of displaying the ultrasonic test...

Every phenomena in the nature, despite the complexity of the subject, has certain rules and regulations. River pattern and behavior as one of the most complex natural phenomena to this is not an exception. Depending on geomorphologic, climatic, topographic and erosive conditions, the waterways exhibit different patterns and behaviors. One of the parameters which can be achieved using the comple...

The paper considers the influence of the image pixels position in a one-dimensional sequence on the result of correlation dimension evaluation. The sequence formed as a result of reading of the two-dimensional pixel image. Dimension evaluation is performed by maximum likelihood method, using image elements ordering and creating vectors in pseudophase space by Takens theorem, and is used as a te...
