“…Because UAM generally requires a flat surface to ensure good bonding, the process has historically been used primarily for simple plate-like geometries. Therefore, changes in fixturing were required to embed sensors within the pipes and seven-hole test articles, as described in more detail previously [24]. The testing described in this work was performed on one of the pipe specimens (Figure 3), with a 3 in (76 mm) outer diameter, and 3/8 in (9.5 mm) wall thickness.…”
