“…The performance of phased array technology has been demonstrated in several NDT applications, for example, testing of welds [3], pipe inspection [4] and turbine blade inspection [5]. Moreover, the combination of array technology and advanced signal processing has been applied to complex geometry components [6][7][8]. A key advancement in phased array inspection was the introduction of the full matrix capture (FMC) approach and the accompanying post-processing algorithm, the Total Focusing Method (TFM) [9].…”
