Applications of Image Reconstruction in NDE
نویسندگان
چکیده
The nondestructive evaluation (NDE) of materials often involves the solution of an inverse problem. It is shown that image reconstruction techniques lead to the direct solution of the 3-D inverse problem when radiographic measurements are made. In particular, it is sugg_~ted that the convolve-and-backproject solution to the 3-D divergent ray geometry problem should be useful for NDE. There is also a discussion of the accept-reject criteria appropriate for various classes of defects.

Fast Geometric Algorithms for Tomographic Nondestructive Evaluation
In this paper we describe the development and application of a novel approach to fast nondestructive evaluation (NDE) via direct estimation of signi cant features from tomographic data without image reconstruction. Classically, the term tomographic has been used to refer only to X-ray, and perhaps magnetic resonance techniques, but in our framework we point out that it has been recently shown t...
متن کاملUltra-Fast Image Reconstruction of Tomosynthesis Mammography Using GPU
Digital Breast Tomosynthesis (DBT) is a technology that creates three dimensional (3D) images of breast tissue. Tomosynthesis mammography detects lesions that are not detectable with other imaging systems. If image reconstruction time is in the order of seconds, we can use Tomosynthesis systems to perform Tomosynthesis-guided Interventional procedures. This research has been designed to study u...

متن کاملA distant real-time radar NDE technique for the in-depth inspection of glass fiber reinforced polymer-retrofitted concrete columns
A novel real-time radar NDE technique for the in-depth inspection of glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP)retrofitted concrete columns is proposed. In this technique, continuous wave radar signals are transmitted in the far-field region (distant inspection), and reflected signals are collected by the same signal transmitter. Collected radar signals are processed by tomographic reconstruction me...
متن کاملAn Advanced Approach for Pointwise Nde Imaging
Nondestructive evaluation (NDE) techniques are widely used in manufacturing and service industries for quality assurance and related applications [1]. Depending on the sophistication of a given NDE procedure, the inspection result can be in a form of a simple go/no-go indication, an amplitude readout, a list or a table of measurements, a twodimensional figure, or an image which correlates test ...
