Abstract Radiography, Ultrasonic, Magnetic Particle, Liquid Penetration and Visual
Inspection tests are the common Non-destructive testing techniques that are used to test the …

Nuclear energy is presently the single major low-carbon electricity source in Europe and is
overall expected to maintain (perhaps eventually even increase) its current installed power …

This work pertains to the nondestructive evaluation of additively deposited coatings using
ultrasound measurements. The specific objective was to evaluate using ultrasound surface …

In nonlinear ultrasonics, the correlation between microstructural change and ultrasonic
properties is investigated by the acoustic nonlinearity parameter, calculated by …

Using ultrasonic arrays to detect and characterise surface breaking cracks is important in the
non-destructive evaluation (NDE) field. It can provide early warning of failure and useful …

One of the most efficient measures to prevent gamma radiation is shielding, which can take
the form of protection barriers, storage containers, wall coating, bunkers, or many others …

A printed dipole antenna is designed with two parasitic elements loaded by embedded
resonators to provide reconfigurable patterns. The embedded resonators in the parasitic …

Conventional ultrasonic detection methods are commonly used for detecting austenitic
stainless steel weld structure. The anisotropy and inhomogeneity of the weld produces a …

Reuse of structural steel can be more attractive than recycling in many cases, if associated
costs and risks are lowered, and if externalities are considered. Geometric characterization …

Imaging defects in austenitic welds presents a significant challenge for the ultrasonic non-
destructive testing community. Due to the heating process during their manufacture, a …
