“…For ultrasonic works in SHM and industrial NDE, low MHz frequencies are typically used, and many applications utilize contact transducers because of practicality and cost. For UT and AE transducers, their calibration utilizes optical interferometry, capacitive sensing and substitution methods [ 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 ]. The transmission sensitivity (displacement or velocity per unit input voltage) can be readily determined by pulse excitation plus laser interferometry, but was not reported for broadband UT transducers until recently [ 21 , 22 ].…”
