The prospects for applying the double-scanning mode in ultrasonic nondestructive testing for recording echo signals are considered. A variant of implementing the double-scanning mode using a phased antenna array is proposed. Algorithms for reconstructing flaw images by the method of projection in the spectral space and the combined SAFT (C-SAFT) method are presented. It is shown that, to obtain high-quality flaw images, the ultrasound propagation velocity in a tested object must be known to within a high accuracy (at least 0.5%). The results of numerical and model experiments in which images were obtained by these methods are presented. 相似文献

A method of automated ultrasonic testing based on the use of a PAA flaw detector for the recording of echo signals followed by the reconstruction of the image of reflectors by applying the 3D variant of the method of projection in the spectral space (3D-PSS) is considered. Customized setting of the PAA flaw detector makes it possible to simulate the operation of many single-element transducers with different angles of incidence. This approach allows one to obtain the images of reflectors with a high resolution and a high signal-to-noise ratio at a depth of more than 100 mm. A procedure for the calibration of an antenna array on a prism operating in the mode of emulation of several piezoelectric transducers with different angles of incidence is discussed. The results of a testing a fragment of the support billet for the ITER diverter when obtaining the images by the classical PAA method and with the use of 3D processing, which demonstrate the efficiency of the developed testing technology, are presented. 相似文献

It is proposed to use the maximum-entropy method (MEM) for processing ultrasonic echo signals for reconstructing images of reflectors with a high signal-to-noise ratio and a low level of “side lobes” of the point-scattering function. When processing echo signals, the pulse-propagation paths can be considered taking reflections from irregular boundaries of a tested object with the wave-type transformation into account. In model experiments, images of reflectors were obtained taking the refractions of rays at the rough surface into account, when echo signals were recorded both using an ordinary single-element transducer in the transceiver mode and an antenna array that recorded echo signals in the double- and triple-scanning modes. The reconstructed images have a resolution that exceeds the resolution according to the Rayleigh criterion. The MEM makes it possible to obtain images of flaws with low-level side lobes, when less than 10% of the complete set of echo signals are used. 相似文献

The application of the digital image focusing (DFA) method to the determination of the types of detected reflectors is considered. For this purpose two antenna arrays (AAs) are used, which are placed on opposite sides of the reflector and using which echo signals are recorded in three acoustic channels in the double-scanning mode. The first and second acoustic channels transmit and receive echo signals using the first and second AA, respectively, and the third channel is tuned so that the first AA transmits pulses and the second AA receives echo signals. Using signals in each channel, many partial images can be reconstructed in a common coordinate system according to different acoustic schemes with allowance for both multiple reflections from irregular boundaries of a tested object and effects of transformation of the wave types. Combining partial images makes it possible to obtain a high-quality image, in which the entire boundary of the reflector is seen and using which an attempt to automate the procedure of evaluating the reflector size and determining its type was made. Such an approach allows one to reduce the subjective influence of an operator on the testing results. It is shown that in order to increase the image resolution, the spectrum of echo signals can be extrapolated by the spectrum splitting method jointly with the construction of an AR model of their spectrum. The results of model experiments that confirm the possibility of determining the reflector type are presented. 相似文献

A modified method of combined SAFT (C-SAFT) for restoring the images of reflectors is considered; it allows the multiple reflection of a pulse from the boundaries of the wall of a cylindrical inspection object. To verify the efficiency of the proposed algorithm, images of a crack were restored from echo signals that were calculated using the CIVA software package, which is intended for modeling the propagation and scattering of ultrasonic pulses. It was shown in a model experiment that the consideration of changes in the pulse phase during reflection from the inspection-object boundaries at various incident angles of an S-wave in the image-restoration algorithm increases the frontal resolution by more than two times. The consideration of five reflections from the inspection-object boundaries made it possible to obtain images of reflectors by the M-C-SAFT method using many acoustic schemes. The images allow one to determine the type of defects, as well as their dimensions and location in the depth of the wall of a pipeline that is 720 mm in diameter. 相似文献

The application of antenna arrays (AAs) for obtaining flaw images during automated non-destructive testing is considered.
The conventional technique of using an AA as a phased AA has a number of drawbacks. An alternative approach is proposed in
which echo signals are registered using an AA operating in the double scanning mode, and a modified algorithm of the combined
SAFT, which takes into account multiray ultrasound propagation with consideration of transformations of wave types upon reflections
from irregular boundaries of a test object, is used to obtain flaw images. The results of testing a specimen with a model
of a volumetric flaw in the form of a 2-mm-diameter side hole drilled at a depth of 12 mm and a specimen with a crack model
with a tip at a 12-mm depth are presented. Both specimens have rough bottoms. The obtained images allow determination of not
only the dimensions and locations of flaws, but also their type. 相似文献

The question of applying the TANDEM scheme for reconstructing flaw images by the SAFT method is considered. When the reflection
of rays from a bottom is taken into account, it becomes possible to reconstruct the image of a boundary of a vertically oriented
planar flaw. Formulas are proposed for calculating the optimal parameters of the scanning scheme for data collection according
to the TANDEM scheme and the resolution is estimated. It is shown that the depth resolution for images obtained taking into
account the reflection from the bottom is much worse than that for a direct beam. To increase the resolution, it is necessary
to use coherent summation of images obtained for the same test object at different bases. This is confirmed by model experiments. 相似文献

The problem of ultrasonic flaw metering consists in the obtainment of information on the reflector type, its dimensions, and the coordinates of its location. As the accuracy of determining the parameters of a discontinuity increases, the results of ultrasonic testing become more reliable. A highquality image of reflectors, which is reconstructed using the C-SAFT method with consideration for multiple reflections of pulses from the boundaries of a test object that makes it possible to determine the types and dimensions of reflectors, can be considered as one of the tools of flaw metering. However, the C-SAFT method disregards the features of reflections from discontinuities with nonuniform scattering indicatrices. As a development of flaw-metering methods, it is proposed to determine the parameters of a discontinuity from the results of comparison of the measured echo signals and estimated echo signals, which are calculated as functions of the discontinuity parameters. The results of using the proposed methods of ultrasonic flaw metering in numerical and model experiments, which demonstrate the working capacity of the proposed approach, are presented. 相似文献

A modification of the SAFT method for obtaining flaw images in test objects containing three regions with different velocities
of sound (SV) is proposed. Complex composite welded joints and repair welds are classified as objects in which the SV in a
welded joint may differ from the velocity in a parent metal by >5%; therefore, a high-quality image of flaws can be obtained
by taking different SVs into account. To solve this problem, a method for obtaining a test object with three regions with
different SVs is proposed. The delays of propagating ultrasonic pulses were calculated using the Fermat principle. The results
of reconstructing flaw images in a 300 welded joint from echo signals obtained as a result of numerical simulation by the
finite-element method are presented. The images obtained by the SAFT method without taking different SVs into account are
displaced from their true position, thus they do not allow determination of their coordinates and location. Consideration
of different SVs allows one to obtain unshifted reflections of flaw images and, hence, evaluate the types and dimensions of
flaws more accurately. 相似文献

Physical principles and algorithms for reconstructing images of the inner structure of an object made of a solid material
are considered. These are based on the pulsed echo method of ultrasonic testing using multielement antenna arrays focused
on each point of the visualized region of the object by spatiotemporal processing of signals from a combination sounding of
the object by all possible pairs of the antenna array. Substantial improvement of the image during testing of a plane-parallel
object is obtained by using signals that are multiply reflected from the object boundaries; the use of different algorithms
of image reconstruction is expedient for different types of discontinuity flaws. 相似文献

The problem of using an elastic organosilicon polymer (??aquapolymer??) as an immersion medium for providing a stable acoustic contact between a test object and a piezoprobe in the process of automated ultrasonic testing of objects with rough surfaces is considered. The use of an ??aquapolymer?? allows one to decrease the consumption of water during ultrasonic testing. Flaw images were reconstructed using a modification of the SAFT method, which takes the profile of a test object into account; this allows improvement of the image quality. An algorithm for obtaining information on the profile of the surface of a test object and taking this profile into account during reconstruction of flaw images with the SAFT method is proposed. Model experiments yielded flaw images with the refraction of beams on a rough surface taken into account. 相似文献

Formulas for an acoustic channel are obtained for an angle probe and a reflector in the form of dihedral angle, which is formed by the end and cylindrical surfaces of a specimen—a round cylinder. It has been shown that, when the wave path in a prism is much shorter than the cylinder’s radius, the decrease that occurs in the amplitude of the echo-signal from the dihedral angle (without additional repeated reflections) owing to a wave-front divergence is the same as that observed during the reflection from a plane surface. The calculated and experimental data are compared. 相似文献

The use of complexly modulated signals during ultrasonic testing of articles with high integral ultrasonic attenuation is substantiated. On the basis of concepts of the optimal-filtering theory, phase-manipulated and frequency-modulated signals most suitable for ultrasonic testing are chosen and the main characteristics of various complexly modulated signals are analyzed. The advantage of using phase-manipulated and frequency-modulated signals in ultrasonic flaw detection for ensuring a high testing resolution and a high sensitivity is shown. It has been revealed that the application of state-of-the-art circuitry components allows the use of various properties of complexly modulated signals and creation of new ultrasonic methods and devices on this basis. 相似文献

A comparative analysis of the frequency parameters of echo signals from artificial reflectors of different shapes and from a natural spill-type flaw has been performed. The use of the instantaneous frequencies of ultrasonic signals that correspond to certain instants inside a pulse was suggested as an informative parameter for determining the flaw type. Instantaneous frequency is estimated based on the algorithm of the continuous wavelet transform, which increases the noise immunity of the method. It is shown that for the algorithm to be practically implemented it is appropriate to present the results in the form of dimensionless parameters, namely, normalized frequency deviations determined between the pulse center, edge, and tail. Their joint application makes it possible, in particular, to reliably distinguish echo signals that are reflected at junction flaws that rise to the surface of a test object (notches, dihedral angles, and spills of the weld joints), flat specimen surfaces, and local flaws, such as cylindrical side through holes and flat bottom drills. 相似文献
