Imaging of Increasing Damage in Steel Plates Using Lamb Waves and Ultrasound Computed Tomography
PublikacjaThis paper concerns inspection of steel plates, with particular emphasis on the assessment of in-creasing damage. Non-destructive tests were performed on four plates, one of which was un-damaged, while the remaining three had a defects in the form of circular holes with a diameter of 2, 5, and 10 cm. Guided Lamb waves were used in the research, and the image reconstruction was performed using ultrasound computed tomography. The...
