Amplitude-based Defect Sizing of SAFT-Results

Article:
European Conference on Non-Destructive Testing 06/2018, At Gothenburg, Sweden; 12

Sizing of indications and the determination of the inspection sensitivity are core tasks in ultrasonic testing. They ensure that critical inhomogenities can be detected and assessed. For the Synthetic...

Correct sizing of reflectors smaller than one wavelength

Conference Paper:
European Conference on Non-Destructive Testing 06/2018, At Gothenburg, Sweden; 12

In the field of ultrasonic testing there are two key questions: Which defects can be found and-in the case indications are found-do they restrict the use of the part? Regarding both questions, the pre...
