Finite Element Analysis Model on Ultrasonic Phased Array Technique for Material Defect Time of Flight Diffraction Detection

Abstract

In this study, the finite element method (FEM) for phased array technology in ultrasonic time of flight diffraction (TOFD) for the defect detection of two-dimensional (2-D) geometric materials was researched. The phased array technology generated the FEM model for the TOFD signal. We have established the finite element model by the FEM software ANSYS based on the ultrasonic mechanism about the defects and the phased array transducer. A plane strain elements have simulated the reflected signal of the defect. We can compare the error ratio between simulation and experiment by using the theoretical calculation value as the benchmark, and find the feasibility of the FEM detection.

Evaluation of Physicochemical and DPPH� Cleaning Activity of Ultrasonic Assisted Extraction of Polysaccharide from Leonurus japonicus

“…The extraction methods employed in the extraction of polysaccharides play huge role in the bioactivities as well as the yield of polysaccharide. Response Surface Methodology (RSM) is a collection of mathematical and statistical techniques used for improving and development of extraction process [19][20][21][22][23]. It is also useful in evaluating the effects of several independent variables not necessarily using predetermined relationship on the system responses.…”

Model‐based method with nonlinear ultrasonic system identification for mechanical structural health assessment

“…There are the large number of the requirements for the fault diagnosis and nondestructive evaluation (NDE) techniques of the engineering system, which is applied to assess the working condition of engineering system to detect any incipient damages to prevent any possibility of a catastrophic failure. [1][2][3] Pulsed eddy current (PEC) testing is a rapidly developing technique with the applications in structural NDT such as metal thickness measurement, defect detection of multilayer materials, and corrosion detection. PEC-based characterization theory and feature extraction techniques have been developed by understanding the influence and responses in the time and frequency domain.…”

A novel time–frequency–space method with parallel factor theory for big data analysis in condition monitoring of complex system

“…Multi-fault mode multi-source dynamic feature extraction is a multi-scale parallel factorization of multi-source signal matrix including process state variables, vibration signals, and so on. [31][32][33][34] The nonlinear time-frequency fault feature information of the single-source signal can be extracted and the fusion of the multi-source feature signals is completed at the same time. The optimization of the nonlinear relationship between process state variables, failure modes, and multi-source vibration signatures in time, frequency, and spatial feature vector space after feature extraction is ensured by the parallel factorization theory.…”
