Abstract:Prior studies have shown that ultrasonic velocity/time-of-flight imaging that uses back surface echo reflections to gauge volumetric material quality is well suited (perhaps more so than is the commonlyused peak amplitude c-scanning) for quantitative characterization of microstructural gradients. Such gradients include those due to pore fraction, density, fiber fraction, and chemical composition variations [11][12][13][14][15]. Variations in these microstructural factors can affect the uniformity of physical p… Show more
