A noncontact inspection system that uses lasers to both generate and detect ultrasonic waves has been developed at the Rockwell Science Center for the purpose of nondestructively inspecting metallic and composite structures. The laser-based ultrasoun

An automated laser-based ultrasound system is described that has sufficient sensitivity to detect typical flaws of interest in composite materials without causing surface damage to the part under test. An important step in achieving a rapid scanning

Patterned illuminating sources and appropriate time modulation may be used to enhance certain features of laser-generated acoustic waves in time or frequency as a function of direction. Steerable, narrowband, “toneburst” ultrasonic signals have b

The authors describe investigations directed at the use of spatial arrays and temporal beam modulation to generate ultrasonic signals which are both narrowband and may be directed ('steered') over some angle within the test piece. By directing a port

State-of-the-art integrally stiffened composite materials, manufactured for use in the next generation of commercial and military aircraft, are increasingly being used for structural components such as wings and fuselages. However, the complexity of

Thickness measurements of glass plates and glass bottles using laser-based ultrasound (LBU) are described. Ultrasound in the glass specimens was generated thermoelastically with either a pulsed CO2 laser, or a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser in the case of c

The ability to quickly and directly manipulate flexible low mass optical fibers equipped with specialized endoscopic scanning optics make fiber systems an attractive method for the development of limited and remote access inspection systems. Previous

Numerical inversion of the Hankel–Laplace transform has been performed for the case of ultrasonic displacements in an infinite, homogeneous, isotropic plate which is excited thermoelastically by a laser pulse. Values for the elastic moduli and the

A passively mode‐locked, flashlamp‐pumped Nd:YAG laser with a cavity length of 11.19 m has been developed to study the noncontact generation of narrow‐band ultrasound. The individual mode‐locked pulses acted as separate sources of ultrasound,

Previously, the applicability of laser-based ultrasonic techniques for the automated inspection of polymer-matrix airframe structures, having either flat or contoured geometries, has been demonstrated without restriction to large radii of curvature.
